Some call me crazy, or ask what is wrong with me. Others just try to avoid me, fearing whatever they think I have is contagious. But... Let me assure you, I am not crazy. However, only four people believe me: My mom, dad, sister, and my best friend, Mags. Maggie only believes me for one reason: she has the same ability. We can go into books. When we go in, we can live as any character we want, for as long as we want. It's not that hard to go into another world, really. Me and Mags (everyone else has to call her Maggie, I'm the only one who is allowed to call her Mags.) have a necklace with some kind of symbol on it. Mine, is the Dauntless Flames, from my favorite book, Divergent. Mags has a Mockingjay, from the Hunger Games. 

There is a special magnet thing inside each necklace. We will put the charms together and put our right hand on whatever book we want to go inside, then BAM! We are inside the book. The cool thing is, we can bring a character out of a book! We don't always go inside the books together, sometimes we go alone. However, that doesn't always go to well...

Most of the time, this ability is great, but there is a catch: if we die in the book, we die in real life. Sounds great, huh? There have been countless times I have almost gotten myself killed. Weather it be a shooting or someone throwing knives at my head. Not the best day... (A/N anyone see the Divergent reference?) The same goes for Mags. But we always manage to survive.
