Several months have passed since the previous book worm. Have I not been reading since then? Oh, I have been reading alright but nothing with any spectacular quote. And from the looks of things, this might be the last book worm until December exams are finished. Both stories are from a collection of short stories by Denton Welch:
“Leaves From A Young Person’s Notebook”:
“...I decided always to carry a box of chocolates with me, so that I could shove them hastily into the mouths of all who were about to hurt and terrify me by their remarks. If the chocolates were large enough they would successfully act as temporary gags, and in extreme cases, if they were thrust with violence, they might even lodge in their throat and choke.”
“Ghosts”:
“Everything at that moment held a secret. Everything was haunted. But human eyes were not the right eyes, and my ears would never hear.”
