Come pick a bouquet from these Flowers in a Dumpster. Eidolon Avenue: The First Feast by Jonathan Winn—where the secretly guilty go to die. All thrown into their own private hell as every cruel choice, every deadly mistake, every drop of spilled blood is remembered, resurrected and relived to feed the ancient evil that lives on Eidolon Avenue.

These are the questions a bookstore owner face when a mysterious book shows up.

A reader? I feel drawn to the shelf like a moth to a flame. My fingers trail over the spines — classic literature, philosophy, ancient history. Lost in the titles, my eyes land on a beautiful leather-bound edition of Wuthering Heights. I rise onto my toes, straining, my fingers just brushing its edge. It wobbles and then falls from the shelf with a heavy thud that sends a cloud of dust into the air making me sneeze twice.

I still thought of Lyndon’s words about the prior murder case in Argao because I was there. I AM CURRENTLY reading CareLikeGoldFish’s work. The book is a mystery-thriller and even without romance, I couldn’t stop reading it whole because the scenes are so familiar, it’s like I’ve seen them before. Just like the scene where the main character shot his friend. It’s the same as what I saw there in Boljoon two months ago.

The woman began to chant, her voice rising to a crescendo, and Emilia felt herself being pulled towards the darkness, towards the very heart of evil. Just as Emilia felt the darkness closing in around her, a sudden burst of light pierced through the night sky. It was a moonbeam, shining down with a brilliant intensity that seemed to repel the shadows. Emilia's heart leaped with hope as she recognized the familiar figure stepping out from the darkness—the spirit of her mother. Her mother’s long, dark hair cascaded down her back, shimmering with an ethereal glow, and her eyes radiated a warmth that banished the darkness around them.

Shelly pulled me inside, leaving Aubrey standing by the door. After going through the different sections, Shelly finally got three books that she found fascinating. I only bought one book ‘Midnight Sun’ by Trish Cook. It was released back in 2017 but Shelly told me that she never got to read it. Some of her friends did tell her though that it was a good read so I bought it. The outline was what caught my eyes. It did seem interesting. Shelly made me promise to lend her the book once I was done reading it. I promised but in return, she had to let me borrow some of the books she already had at home.

"Are you trying to change something about yourself?" He was quiet for a moment. "Maybe. Or maybe I'm just trying to figure out who I actually am underneath all the expectations." "That's heavy for a Monday afternoon," I said without thinking. He laughed. "Yeah, sorry. I told you I'm too direct. Let's talk about something lighter. Have you started any new books?" "I'm reading The Shining now. Wanted to stay on the Stephen King train." "The Shining is terrifying," he said. "I read it in high school and couldn't sleep for a week."

The books on the shelves fell to the ground, and the minor earthquake continued, while the drizzle became heavier. Then, both books began to glow. The Earth book gave off a deep, brown light that resonated with every werewolf in the pack, while the water Grimoire gave off a blush silver light. . . . Lying on the Alpha's bed, fast asleep, Rhiannon felt a sudden, overwhelming surge within her and her eyes snapped open. For a moment, one eye was the colour of the earth, and the other was a blueish silver glow. She sucked in a deep breath as she threw herself off the bed. The overwhelming feeling was something she couldn't comprehend - all she knew was that she was being pulled toward somewhere,

she murmured, tilting her head. Drawn by fascination, she found the rolling ladder attached to the bookshelf and climbed carefully. Her fingers trailed over several thick volumes—Blood Oaths and Moonlight, Fangs of Fire, The Treaty of Shadows. The illustrations on the covers were beautiful yet chilling, with fanged creatures, glowing eyes, and moons stained crimson. With great care, she pulled down four books and descended, arms full. She found the oversized reading chair near the window and curled into it, flipping open the first book.

There were a lot of famous ones but only one caught my eye. It had a familiar spine and golden thread but this one had words running along the spine. "A witch's diary," I read. I ran my finger over the words. I instinctively closed my eyes with a gasp as a shiver fell down my spine. This book most definitely had a dark energy. I slowly removed it from the bookshelf. It had a plain black colour just like my journal. In fact it was an exact replica except for the words on the spine of the book.

My eyes flicked up from the book in front of me to glare at the small window next to me, where there were two birds perched on a branch outside looking as if they were ready to take flight at any moment. The moon was shining brightly overhead, but the sky appeared cloudless. And not just that - when I looked down at the book I could see it glowing dimly with some kind of weird glow. There was no light reflecting off of it whatsoever. The glow looked almost magical, and my breath hitched in my throat. It felt almost like magic - maybe I was seeing things but what was worse my wolf growling and snarling inside of me , telling me that something was very, very wrong.
