BlogFlash 2012 Day Fifteen: Books
Eliza wandered along the upper level of her favorite library. She loved this one in particular because it was the only one in the area with a vast selection of old, vintage books. The timeless atmosphere always cleared her head.
Why would Vick follow her into the forest and try to convince her that Rowland didn’t love her? And why did she pass out?
Behind her, a random book thumped on the ground. As she turned to look, multiple books on the shelves above her started to fall, as if some invisible force was pushing them. She started to run, narrowly missing the wave of falling books that followed her.
Reaching the staircase and looking out across the library, every book on every shelf simultaneously flew off, clobbering those unlucky enough to be standing under them.

Thoroughly enjoying your story Christina…and I wouldn’t want to be beneath those falling books!
Ouch! Mystical falling books. What’s next?
Ooooo – my spidey senses are tingling!! I think Vick is behind this attack. If a girl isn’t safe in a library, she is in real trouble!!
Great use of books today. I love it!!!
How exciting! What a wonderful use of a place usually so comforting!
Hmmm I wonder what made the books suddenly begin to fly off the shelves like that? Fab use of the prompt and I can’t wait for tomorrow’s!!
