Holes Book Read Novels & Stories

But he realized after a second that he had been holding it upside down all along. A muscle inside her jaw ticked but she offered him a strained smile. "I guess, I should say what book are you not reading." She plucked the book delicately out of his hands and read out the name. "Black holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays." Her eyes cut through him like a knife, the fear in them was overwhelming and when she spoke her voice was shaky. "Why-why are you reading this?" At first, he didn't understand, but then he did. He remembered when she told him to read this exact book and he had said 'I rather die.'

Whether she was willing to listen to me or not, I was going to do what I wanted to. I dropped the idea of going back to check up on Darius as Hazel got into describing what had happened in the book she'd just finished reading. Apparently, it was a love story between a mafia heir and a runaway princess. While I would always jump on an opportunity to read, I couldn't help but countdown the minutes that was left till it was time. Around an hour later, the said time arrived

After resting for a while, they walked around and saw a bookstore which they both agreed to enter. She was reading the back of Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen when Jacob asked her. “What do you say let’s read horror books? Like the ones we watched today?” “Eh? I’m scared. You go read first, then give me a summary, then I’ll decide. Haha!” “Roger!” as he picked The Dunwich Horror and Others by H.P. Lovecraft and IT by Stephen King. They finished book shopping, it was around three in the afternoon when Jacob invited her to go somewhere else.

It was a grown-up book, but Dad had been reading it to him. "Do you want me to read?" Ethan asked. River didn't say yes. But he didn't say no. Ethan opened the book to the bookmark. He turned on his small reading light. "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit," Ethan read. He wasn't very fast, but he knew the words. "Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort."

I open it to find a leather book with a crescent moon on the front. “Hazel…Is this what I think it is?” “Take it. We can’t let anyone get there hands on this book. In the wrong hands, it could be the end for us.” I am not sure what Hazel means but I trust her and I don’t plan on anyone else having this book. I head back downstairs with the book and run my hands along the leather. It’s the same one Alpha Jake had in his library. How many copies of this book are there? I open the first page and begin reading. What I find within it’s pages terrifies me.

Lyle shook his head, highly doubtful that Loony would find the treasure again. “You can’t say that. The book is made from special materials and not something that can be destroyed by ordinary means. No matter how powerful they are, they can’t destroy my treasure. Besides, I’m quite certain that they’ll never comprehend that divine book in a million years. I can bet that with you.” Philip shook his head at Loony’s confidence. He was not interested in the book. He was just curious to see what endless tricks the demons had. The demons did not sound easy to mess with.

He bowed and was gone as quickly as he arrived, leaving the heavy satchel behind. I lunged for the bag the moment the tent flap sealed. I untied the cord with shaking fingers and pulled out the book. It wasn't ancient and brittle. It was a modern reprint, but the cover read: Healers' Lore: The Legacy of the Wounded Crown. It was a medical text, disguised as a historical relic.

(Hirre's POV) ~In the next day~ the Tyranny Pack. "Hirre, what's now? Did you find something you needed?" Sandra, my cousin asked as she sat beside me. We were almost two hours in the massive Library but I only read a forbidden book about magic. "Yeah. This Book of Morgue matched the things that Doctor Zahard said to me." I said while continuing to read the contents. "So what did you find out?" Sandra added as she looked at me, waiting for me to reply.

It was not easy to find the right one among so many books and roles, but after three hours of tireless search, he stumbled upon something. While Godric was looking through scrolls and books, he noticed a small book in one of the back rows. One might think that it was hidden extra deep, since it could not be found at first and even second glance. Godric reached for the hidden treasure and pulled the book out from among all the others. It was a small, almost crumbled book. The book cover testified to a long time and when Godric opened it, a cloud of dust came towards him. A cough left his throat and he wondered how long this book had been down here. The pages looked old and cracked, the writin
