Every book they had on the shelves prior to 1985 was destroyed! I managed to grab a 1967 edition of “The Outsiders” from the top of the box, but so many!”

tumbaqueflorece:
Sometimes things just hit you in very unexpected ways. You may fall in love with someone you barely know even though the chances of that love blossoming are slim. You may sit down with your best friend, lay your head on their shoulder, and know for once that it is enough.
