Booktok Gift Novels & Stories

He smoothly drew her focus back to the gift I had given her the large beautifully wrapped book. Beth's eyes lit up, the earlier sadness completely forgotten. "Oh my goodness!" she squealed, her small hands reverently caressing the cover. "A first edition of 'Voyage to the Stars'! You know how much I love sci-fi, Sage! I've been trying to get this particular book for so long! This is why I feel more excited than ever!" Her enthusiasm was infectious and I found myself smiling genuinely, relieved to have brought such joy to the little girl.

"You should be embarrassed to call that a gift! I've never ever seen such a cheap gift in my life!" She kept waving the book in her hand as she spoke. "Cheap? I gave you a practice book to help you increase your knowledge. Isn't that a good thing? Don't you know that knowledge is the most precious wealth there is? It's so much better than those useless bags and shoes you have." Francine gritted her teeth and scoffed. "I wouldn't be this p*ssed if you didn't give me a practice book meant for elementary school kids!" "Well… I was kinda worried you wouldn't be able to do the practice question if I gave you any higher than that."

Some gifted her clothes, creams for her delicate skin, and, of course, her favorite strawberry cookies. For my part, I gave her a beautiful necklace I had seen in a lovely store a few days ago. The boys, not settling for much, gave her what she truly needed: Ryan gave her materials for university, the twins a Superman shirt they'd probably never take off, Paul a CD with his thunderous rock music, and Carl a photography book. Lauren received makeup and clothing to cover her skin more, Katia got accessories she'd use at least once a year, Blake a special camping kit for whenever he fancied going, and Brooke got a pile of romance books, as she adored them.

"Alright, let's continue." We had finally circled the entire store and filled the basket with a bunch of things he would like. The Captain America shirt being one, along with a giant pack of Sour Patch Kids and all three of the Lord of the Rings movies even though I was pretty sure he had them all. Still, it was on sale, and I was not going to miss a bargain. In addition to that, we also threw in a Starbucks gift card, a pack of prisma color markers since he told me once he loved to draw when ever he actually had time, and lastly a book that contained endless photos and information of outer space. I was taking a risk putting the book in there, because I was the only one that knew he was abso

“Because you're cheap and don't spend a dime of what you have in the bank, and you still use that old tablet with the chipped screen, and because Sebastian is so afraid of losing you that he doesn't even tell you that you need a new laptop for your stady, Nancy and I bought you one. Now we won’t be ashamed to be seen with you and that old crap you call a tablet.” Everyone laughed. Yes, it was true that Theo only spent as much money as necessary, but his old tablet worked perfectly. The second gift was for Sek, and it was from Theo. A Smartwotch, and a book named “Golden Boy”, written by Tara Sullivan, about an albino boy from a small Tanzanian village. Sek hugs Theo and thanks him, immediate

Tania's was a yoga kit which made me smile (I really need that) and a lovely leather bracelet. Both of them gave me another special gift: a pretty photo book and the silver dress I wore earlier. Roe gifted me a life planner and a selfie photo case... Seems everyone knows I love photos. Goldie, yes Goldie surprisingly gifted me a stainless steel water bottle....well, she's cool. Kim's gift got me jumping and squealing happily, a beautiful Cuisinart ice cream maker... Oh my goshhhh!! You know what this means??? Excessive ice cream at anytime I need it. I need to give her a kiss for this...

To her surprise, it turned out to be a book. It was a book she had mentioned in passing when they chatted. However, it was not the usual version being sold on the market, but a rare edition of the original language’s version. While Olivia was thinking about it, her phone dinged. It was a text message from Mr. M. [Do you like the gift?] [Yes, thank you.] [I wanted to give you an expensive gift, but I was afraid you would not accept it. So, I gave you this book. Although it’s not a new book and a private possession of my friend’s, I hope you are satisfied with it.]

To the perfection of a human reading this, Hi, It’s Narnia’s Fifth Resident. The author. Not Callisto*, the Narnian Resident, fifth one to be exact. If you are reading this, that means that you’ve reached the end of Callisto’s Gift! CONGRATULATIONS and thank you soooo much. Words honestly can’t explain how happy I become when I see even one new read on any of the chapters. It gives me the encouragement to keep going and keep writing. It may not mean much to you, but it means the world to me.

she added. “That’s my girl.” Her father winked at her. “At least someone in this room appreciates me. Thank you, Father.” She finished unwrapping the gift and hid her laughter so she could feign indignation. “What is the meaning of this?” She held up the handwritten book titled “50 Ways to be Nice to Mr. Mitchell so he Won’t Drop You Like Yesterday’s Newspaper in Six Months.”

“But I hear this is a great investment.” I open it and find a certificate: 2,000 bitcoin. My eyes widen. On the back, I find Apple stock information too. I hadn’t heard of bitcoin much, but this? This is so my kind of gift. “I love it, Matt! Thank you! I can’t wait to read all about it.” Ben hands me a card next. Inside are vouchers for Louis Vuitton, Prada, Balenciaga, Balmain, and Christian Louboutin.
