The city approached through the windscreen in its January guise lower light, starker colours, the particular stripped-back quality of New York in the first week of a new year before it had fully decided what it was going to be. “What do you want this year to look like?” I asked. He considered it the way he considered everything. “More of what we built last year,” he said. “The Fund running at full capacity. The European expansion settled. The public address behind us. More dinners at your mother’s on Sundays.” He paused. “The book, when you’re ready.” “The book,” I said. Not dismissively. Just acknowledging it the thing that was there, waiting, accumulating itself in the pages of a notebook

"Like reading. I already know you're a bookworm, Ruby." Ruby's eyes lit up instantly, her inner literary critic emerging. "Oh, so the billionaire remembers? Please don't tell me your reading list is just boring finance textbooks and business biographies." "Actually," I leaned in a fraction of an inch, a teasing glint in my eyes, "I prefer classic literature. Russian realism, psychological thrillers. Dostoyevsky, Fitzgerald, Hemingway. I like substance."

34.5 "I chose this room because I know how you love reading so much." He says. I smile at him. "Thank you." Landon begins to put our stuff inside the closet while I walk near bookshelves and found tons of great novels worth the read. "You wanna bring some with you when we go back to New York?" Landon calls out. "Can we?" I ask as I stare at the novels. “Yeah, of course.” “That would be amazing. Who owns these books? Some are classics."

The library’s floor is polished, and it has a granite fireplace and a comfortable, well-worn sitting arrangement. I heave a sigh, relieved that Ms. Lennie isn’t around to reprimand me. I’ve always loved reading and collecting romance books at home, so seeing these shelves just makes my heart soar. I start my journey inside, searching for cookbooks. Instead, I stumble upon a book placed in a glass cage in the middle of the classics section. I lean forward, touching the glass as I try to read the title. It’s Macbeth and Hamlet by William Shakespeare. The air instantly abandons my lungs when I catch sight of the leather-bound cover. It’s very old but still stunning.

The more I try to draw boundaries she is making it nearly impossible for me to control myself from going and grabbing her face and kissing the shit out of her. I take a deep breath and return a soft smile," how about the classics, lex?" I ask her to divert my mind. " well, pride and prejudice is the only one I can truly think of!" she caresses the book on the book rack. " hmmm, interesting. I can't find any better than that one in the classics," I say while walking toward her. " but I think sense and sensibility were nice too, you know," I whisper not wanting to disturb other people in the store

He was here for me. When we finally settled down into our usual circle, Linda Lively's book was opened, I noticed the way Kael handled his copy. Like it was something worth respecting, worth holding carefully. It made me smile. “Kael,” April said suddenly, her grin mischievous, “why don’t you read for us?” I half expected him to decline. To smirk and shake his head like reading aloud was beneath him. But instead, he nodded. Took the book and cleared his throat.

As the long white limousine turned onto the New York State Thruway, she opened a new file and began typing: First Class Male by Rachel Clark The bulky manila envelope was heavy with the weight of rejection as Postmaster Albert Burger placed it on the counter and began filling out the yellow pickup slip.

Alana let go of our hands, darting toward the children’s section at the end of the hall. Suddenly, it was just the two of us. Standing side by side in the narrow aisle of classic literature. Gareth tucked his hands into his pockets, scanning the spines of the books with a quiet, respectful interest. "What do you usually go for, Claire?" he asked softly. His voice seemed to blend into the hum of the air conditioning. I ran my fingers along the worn spines of the hardcovers. "The classics. Jane Austen, the Brontës... anything with beautiful prose and a happy ending. I suppose I like the escape."

My hands skimmed the books stacked in the book shelves, and time ticked by painfully slow as I took Alpha Nolan's younger brother's advice and stayed inside the room. It had been over two hours since I slept and woke up on the white and gold bed, so I decided to take a look at all the books that were in the book shelves. The writing on the spines were mostly fading away, gathering dust as they had no use for the people who lived here. I admired some of the old classics and new books as my eyes wandered over every title. I had gathered a stack of books in my hand, picking the ones I wanted to read and taking them out. So far I had five books which were classics that I knew would peak my inter

Their breath clouded in front of them, the visible evidence of the cold, the way the body produced warmth in response to the world's refusal to provide it.

Elijah had found it at a used bookstore in Park Slope, the kind of place where the owner knew every book on the shelves and could recommend something based on a brief description of what you were looking for. "It's good," Elijah said. "Not just the history—th
