Oh my god, everything--" "Shush." Kabir got my hands, bent in front of me with a frown. "Bookworm, you are rambling again. Everything will be okay. You'll talk to her and tell how it troubles you when your books are torn. Work it out. I'm sure she feels regretful. Okay?" I nodded. He touched my cheek, rubbing his thumb on my chin. "Don

“Hold on! That book seems special. I bet you haven’t seen it before. We need…” “Fire to reveal what has been written.” Lucas completed my words, and my eyes only widened in surprise. “I have read all the books here, probably a hundred times. But this particular book can open a door to bad incidents the moment you reveal all that is in the book. It uses your mind to free itself. So, it’s better off not reading. This is where you have to caution your curiosity.” He lectured me. “Oh, I see. I’m sorry.” I apologized, realizing I could have caused havoc with my own hands.

In my opinion, it’s just to disguise the high price.” This was Heather’s first time here, and she didn’t think that it was the best place for reading. “Businessmen pursue profits. That’s normal.” Matthias didn’t think it was an issue.

The sound surprised both of us and Lora pointed at me immediately. "There it is." "What?" "You're making fun of me." "You earned it." The conversation moved easily after that. One story became another. Favorite foods. Childhood memories. Strange habits. Embarrassing moments. Somewhere between the appetizers and dessert, she admitted she sometimes read the final pages of books before finishing them. I stared at her in genuine horror. "That's psychotic." "It reduces anxiety." "It ruins the entire story." "It prepares me emotionally." I shook my head. "No. Absolutely not."

Or if your plan is to stay until the end to prove this book sucks, then feel free to stay, BUT PLEASE don't flood my com

I shook my head “Look Troy, you will not be spoiling anything for me, in fact, the only reason why I am reading in the first place, is because of Emily, ordinary, I won't be reading this, it is a waste of my time, no offense to you,” “Okay, I am going to start from the very beginning,” Troy said. taking a seat opposite me.
