‘things’, because then they won’t count. And if she doesn’t do them, she’s sure everything will go wrong. Then she meets Xavier. He has his own kind of special missions to make life better. When they do these missions together, Aster feels free, but if she stops doing her ...
A really fabulous stat that I get from using the GoodReads app is the total number of pages I’ve devoured across all the books read in a singular year: 24,077 Pages! That is truly incredible. I was shocked when I saw it, but also quite proud. This is the sole reason I’m using ...
Don’t get me wrong, the building isn’t anything special–as a friend of my brother’s joked, “it rains in the cottage before it rains outside.” Last summer we went up for a bit of pandemic break when we were allowed to travel, and the whole place was filled with mites. The ...
