Read to find out!! ====== Well, I am writing this novel to try a new style and get a temporary break from my first novel, which has become stagnant. As always, you can just ask any questions regarding the book, and I'll answer them without spoilers, of course.(◠‿◕) Reader's discretion: This novel is slow-paced, as all masterpieces need time to become a masterpiece, so don't dive in, hoping for it to be another fast-paced action-packed novel. It's a slice of life... for the most part.
