BookWorm makes public-domain classics feel like expensive hardbacks — warm typography, distraction-free pages, and a reading community that cares about books.
I finished the last page at 2:14 in the morning, and sat for a while in the dark listening to the house sleep.
Somewhere downstairs a tap dripped. I thought about the characters the way you think about people you've seen leave on a train — certain they will arrive somewhere, uncertain where.
The windows were blue. It would be light soon. I put the phone down on the pillow beside me and let my eyes close with the book still glowing faintly, the way a candle does when you blow it out in another room and the smell reaches you later.
