"To the bookstore it is Mademoiselle. This way if you please." As they continued to walk the short distance to the bookstore, Wentworth had at least one more chocolate. "Books, they are wonderful. I remember my family getting together to read in the evenings. It was very 'magical' how the stories transported us to far off places. They must have some special power, books." He realized that he was waxing philosophical and decided to ask, "So do you have any favorite books or authors?"

With a goofy smiled plastered on her face Anna skipped alongside Wentworth as they made their way to the bookstore. She nodded in agreement with his statement about books having special powers, and she did truly agree. Even though she lived in a magical world, books seemed to be magical in their own different way. "Hmm, I have lots of books that I like. The Narnia series is a favorite, I grew up with Peter Pan so that holds a special place in my heart despite the fact that it's about a bunch of boys." She wrinkled her nose lightly in disapproval, then realized that she was in the presence of a boy so she probably shouldn't be mean about them. "I like lots of fantasy. Then again I like lots of everything. How about yourself?"

He was slightly reluctant to reveal his true favorite book type, but decided that only someone as interested in books as Anna would have a chance at truly appreciating his interest. "Well, it is a little embarrassing, but I really enjoy textbooks most of all. I know, it may seem a little strange, but I just have a strange connection with learning. I love it!" He felt confidence re-enter his countenance.

"It's ok, I like textbooks too," Anna said with a light giggle, shrugging her shoulders. "Not the most exciting reading sometimes, but I do enjoy learning. I quite like being a smartypants." She grinned as they made it to the store, pulling the door open and holding it open for him once she'd ambled inside. As she looked around her grin grew wider, for she of course loved bookstores, and this one looked especially lovable. The organization of the place was questionable, all you could see were shelves stuffed with books of different sizes, some looking brand new while plenty more looked like they had been flipped through many a time. Those were her favorites, the ones that other people had already read. "So where to?" she asked, wondering if there was a section that he wanted to look through. She didn't even know where to start.

"I'm a serious fan of the m...author Jane Austen. I already have the majority, but let's see if they have any early editions of Emma." He made a beckoning glance to her and motioned for her to come along, then he started looking through the fiction series. "Is there something that you're interested in?"
