"""You're not a monster," I said. But I lied. What I really wanted to say was that a monster is not such a terrible thing to be. From the Latin root monstrum, a divine messenger of catastrophe, then adapted by the Old French to mean an animal of myriad origins: centaur, griffin, satyr. To be a monster is to be a hybrid signal, a lighthouse: both shelter and warning at once.""

- Ocean Vuong, from "On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous"

This quote single-handedly inspired me to write this book. This is my first real book, I have tried my best, still there might be some minor mistakes feel free to alert me.

Also, I am open to constructional criticism, but please don't be disrespectful towards anyone.

State your opinion with kindness.
