We have a nice selection of them, actually. Along with the journals are some musty cloth-bound editions of classic literary texts. You know the kind. Books which appear antique and valuable but aren’t. Here’s a damp, musty-smelling copy of Benito Cereno, next to a collection of Shakespeare’s plays. Also, several classic editions of Hemingway’s novels. Now here’s something interesting. A diary. Upon opening it, a name scrawled on the inside cover grabs my attention: “Jebediah Bassler.” Of Bassler House? Bassler Road, and Bassler Memorial Library? This is interesting, to say the least.

She put the compass back in her pocket. Took his hand. They stood on the corner of Atlantic and 4th in Brooklyn and watched the ground open and something begin. The Thomas Emmanuel Brooks Library. Three names on a door that had not been built yet. Three generations arriving at one corner. And a woman standing in the middle of it all. Her father's daughter. All the way through. Still. And always.

“She gave balls, galas, parties, charity events, fund-raisers of every stripe. She actually had a heart and a conscience. She was the human face of an otherwise very imposing old firm. She held a gala one year to raise money for a literary charity at the NYPL—” “Holy shit, you worked at the NYPL?” “Fifth Avenue, Main Branch,” he said with barely concealed pride. “With Lenox and Astor?” she asked, naming the two famous lions that guarded the legendary library.

I focused on the sound of his lungs—the same lungs that had breathed life into me in the safehouse, the same man who was currently my only anchor in a world turned to ash. We finally emerged into the bowels of the New York Public Library—the Milstein Research Stacks. In the daytime, this place was a sanctuary of knowledge. In the blackout, it was a haunted forest. The flashlight in Cassian’s hand was shielded by a red filter, casting a bloody, rhythmic pulse over the endless rows of shelving. Millions of books sat in the dark, their spines like ribs, their contents a silent witness to a history that was being unwritten in real-time.

“Have you seen the library of congress?” I asked. “I haven’t.” “It’s the largest library in the world. But I guess this place is larger.” The ceiling of the library was so high that it almost reached my pride. Hanging from it were five gigantic, ancient chandeliers with the brightest light I’ve ever seen. Its diamonds glitter as light touches it.

"Especially the New York library. It was beautiful, just the type of place you would've loved." "Is it big?" She asked in a small voice. "Yes, and too elegant. I went there for you." I squeezed her a bit to make her see I didn't forget about her in New York, not even for a second. "Next time, we both will go together." I looked down at her tired eyes. "That city really never sleeps. Night feels like a day. And the nightlife is crazy there. Life is fast as if everyone is in hurry. It makes you feel sad about how they couldn't appreciate the things given to them."

“You don’t remember, do you? Let me tell you the rest of the story myself.” J Across from your law library was Washington Square park—a beautiful New York City park with elm trees, highlighted by the circular fountain in the middle and the Washington Square Arch near the Fifth Avenue entrance. You remember it, yes? The park, a tourist attraction, and a place for owners to run their dogs, was once a potter’s field for indigent, yellow fever victims and, as legend had it, home of an ancient elm tree that served as gallows. That, you didn’t know, little plaçage, did you? But some place, deep down, you must have sensed it.

Croissants. Croissant donuts. Pain au Chocolat. Baguettes. It wasn't exactly the type of sweets that they preferred... Danary asked me if I wanted to join her and Liam on their weekend trips to a library, to which I eagerly accepted. Apparently, there was a lecture that Liam was interested in at the Morgan Library and Museum in midtown this week in particular, so she told me to wait in front of this french bakery shop near the library as a meeting point.

Well—at least—I did, right? While Rich sleeps in the bedroom, I decided to visit the local library here in New York. It has some resources for werewolves that humans think are for fiction. I could use that. I left a note for Rich in case he wakes up and I’m gone, promising I’ll be back soon, and tiptoed out of the room. It was literally like 6 o’clock in the morning when I caught a taxi and headed to the library. There are so many questions in my mind, and I’m really hoping that all of them will be answered when I get home.
