A fear of flying is one thing. Being seated next to a Tetris-addict who claims to be the Reaper is quite another. "He pulled out a business card. Where his profession should have been stated, the card read 'Destroyer of Worlds'. Nodding slowly, I pocketed the card."

Sick of cliché Wattpad books? Then this isn't the book for you. We take every single over-used plot, character and trope on Wattpad - from player-meets-nerd to my-boyfriend-is-a-vampire - and mash it all into one, awful, hilarious parody. NOTE: This is a parody. Characters have not been created to mock a race/nationality/sexuality, they have been created to lightly poke fun at the way certain teen fiction writers reduce them into crude stereotypes. Thanks for helping this pile of junk get to #1 in Humor!

#WINNER OF WATTPAD INDIA AWARDS 2021 (MATTERS OF HEART CATEGORY) Veritas is one of the big players in journalism- legacy, history, hard hitting journalists and writers. A family of truth tellers. Anita was born into the same family; raised on facts and logic. And she is aware- a news story needs both. Anita is an ambitious, intelligent journalist- she's keen on maintaining her father's heritage while also creating her own space. Her professors think she's meant to be one of the greats. But too much ego- isn't good thing at 21. And life has a lot to teach you at 21, Anita learns. An accident temporarily cripples her and sends her for "rest and recovery" to England. But Anita is too restless to rest. What ensues- is a troubling twenties cocktail- she falls in love. Its' reckless, its' passionate - and most importantly conceals the truth. Truth telling, no more. When a house of cards falls down- nothing remains. Can Anita find it in herself to build a world of her own when things fall apart? Or will she bow down like many before her? What does it mean for a woman to have a world of her own? And can the modern woman truly have it all? The story that didn't make it to the headlines. ( 59,000 WORDS )
