Erica couldn’t help but to laugh as Summer smacked straight into a lamp post. “Oh my god, are you ok?” She was giggling as she walked over to her and put her arms around her shoulder.
“Yeah that’s fair enough, I love the really mind fucky books though, they keep me reading.” She smiled and browsed through the pile with Summer. She was so glad she now had a friend who shared her passion of reading.
“Well, but there’s a difference between books that make me think and books that fuck with my mind. You know? Like Ender’s Game, that makes me think. Oooh, I’ve been trying to find this for ages!” She pounced on a tiny, thin book.
“Yeah, I get what you mean.” She looked down at the book Summer had picked up and raised her eyebrows “What’s that?”
She showed it to Erica. “The Ordinary Princess. I remember reading it when I was very small, and it made a big impression on me. It’s about a princess who is cursed to be ordinary, and finds out it’s actually a blessing. You know, the sort of princess with six sisters, each more beautiful than the last, that kind of thing. I used to daydream about meeting someone who would see what was inside me, instead of just looking at my appearance.”
