So.......this is my first book ever. Please correct me if I make any mistakes.

this is a sequence to the story the last star where the chapters are like side story and it happens after the ending. I don't know how good this book will be but I keep having so much ideas for them and if you see the following beside the title it means that ♠️=its a part of the main story but i didn't put it since it didn't fit ♦️= it is a backstory or something occurs in the past ♧= It a story takes place in a different timeline or dimension 💙= it's a short story that I either got the idea randomly or someone gave me an idea (so if you want to give me a idea feel free to tell me)
