Vashti's Daughter

Vashti's Daughter

Anna ended the call and poured the pancake batter onto the griddle. “I saw the photos. Anything I can do to help?” “Set the table?” Anna tried to maintain her composure, but she was viably shaken. It was her choice and her compulsion in the present world, and the vow she made to Esther in her other world to publish Vasthi’s Daughter as nonfiction, not to mention how Nate came to write the book in the first place. It never occurred to her that challenged religious text would have resulted in such a backlash. While neither she nor Nate were considered atheist, Anna was well aware of the uproar Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials trilogy caused. While banning a book was a sure-fire way to make

I MET YOU

I MET YOU

She also had this ability to debate, to defend her point of view, without belittling yours or insulting when you don't think the same way. The most recent debate was about the best books we had ever read. I told her that I couldn't pick just one, to which I added, “She's crazy, Chelsea. What person who appreciates reading can have a favorite? I denied, because it sounded like something impossible. There is a huge variety of categories. No it can not be done.

The Light's Shadow

The Light's Shadow

Stan’s expression light up the moment I mention my book. "Wait, you were the writer of ’Live your life?’ That book was a philosophical breakthrough; it was able to speak the truth about the flaws of our society. It was a real eye-opener. I am a big fan," His confession makes me gleam. I didn't even know that he's a reader of my books. "Why, thank you. People always got angry at me because of how ’contradicting’ it was because I am a Christian," I explain.

Annie gave them a moment to digest the information. “The author of this book has done a lot of research and based much of the book in fact, but unfortunately he was researching a very skewed version of written history, but I think that his argument is so compelling that some humans believe this book to be a work of fact rather than fiction. I can’t stress enough how popular this novel has become, it’s been read by millions of humans all over the world and if what the book says is true, which the author claims it is, it would blow the human church apart. Just imagine, everything the church have had drummed into its followers for thousands of years would be proved to be a lie in a heartbeat. I

The Last Full Moon

The Last Full Moon

about the consequences of someone who made the same mistake. I got caught up reading for the past two hours, and I found some things out: 1) Jesus loves me. 2) a) I must think differently than most people (and that may just this once be to my benefit). b) Out of a stack of about twenty books, there are two of which I am particularly fond. Now, *apparently*, I’m not supposed to like both of them, because (apparently) there’s some skirmish where you either find the one an outdated, misguided mistake and the other the dawn of the new age, or you find the one a brilliant theological masterpiece (which it is) and the other childish preconception (which I don’t entirely believe). So, as you can se

WILD BOOKS: A COLLECTION OF NAUGHTY STORIES

WILD BOOKS: A COLLECTION OF NAUGHTY STORIES

“Quiet doesn’t mean unbothered. Just good at hiding it.” We fell into silence. The only sound was distant thunder rumbling above ground. I wondered how long we’d be down here. Minutes stretched. My mind wandered to how close he was. How alone we were. “Tell me something,” I said finally. “Why’d you become a librarian? You don’t seem like the type who likes being stuck behind a desk all day.” Mr. Kane exhaled softly. “Books don’t talk back. They don’t expect small talk. I like the order. And the stories. What about you? History major with a focus on obscure trade? That’s not common.”

The Reluctant Queen

The Reluctant Queen

The bookstore was more crowded than usual. A new controversial book had been published on the war between the three humanity derived races and it had crashed the internet, so people were coming in by the droves to pick up hard copies. It was said that it was actually being denounced by the leaders of the vampires, werewolves, and humans, so it made one wonder how it got published in the first place. It also made it that much more desirable.

The One True Alpha

The One True Alpha

~ A M E L I A ~ It couldn’t be. What were the chances? The book I was looking at in the library a while back, which was all destroyed and unreadable, was also Everett’s favourite book and is a book that is widely hated. Things weren’t adding up. Shaking my head, ‘I don’t understand. If it’s a book of fiction, why do people hate it so much? Why can’t you have a fictional story of a female Alpha leader?’

I can’t explain it, but I don’t have to, either, if I don’t bring it up, and I’m not one to ever start conversations. I sniff the paperback—old, musty paper, glue, and Justus—and set it on the pallet. The next book in the pile, Peter Kropotkin’s The Conquest of Bread, has a picture of two men chopping down a tree on the cover. It smells the same. All the books are dog-eared paperbacks with yellowed pages—Walden by Henry David Thoreau, Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler, Critique of Practical Reason by Immanuel Kant, several each by Ursula K. Le Guin and N. K. Jemison, and a massive hardback of Plato’s collected works. The Plato is the only one that looks like it hasn’t been read a hundre
