Book Heaven
Books were Juniper's way of escaping the real world and being transported into a fictional place. Juniper may not look like it but he's someone who loves reading. Friends will see him reading constantly but another reason he reads so much is he can relate to some things that happen in books. It makes him feel less lonely in a way.
Scanning the shelves to find a book he would like to read was difficult because he had no idea what kind of books he liked he just picked books out that looked or sounded interesting or they had been recommended to him.
He tries to not let anyone take his love for books away from him but he worries about what people think about him too much.
He decided that he wouldn't be able to pick a book out so he closed his eyes and pointed at a random book and took it off the shelf carefully.
He dove right into reading it but he couldn't get into it as he was constantly looking over his shoulder to see if anyone was looking at him. He was too self-conscious.
He finally began liking the book and he carried on reading for what seemed like five minutes but it was actually around two hours. He finished the book and took his notebook out of his bag, and he recorded what book it was and the author.
But what would he do now?
