In Tokyo, where the System siphons thought, emotions & memories, a literature student meets a strange psychic girl and they embark on an escape from mindless agents, dream worlds and reality itself, in a soul-searching journey for love, for identity and what it means to be human. But all that remains is a peculiar coffee shop order. The novel examines the human condition, perception, socio-political systems, capitalism and consumer culture, incorporating paranoiac conspiracy theories, surreal cosmic visions, circular symbolism and shifting parallel worlds, with profound discussions of coffee, art, literature and music. [Dystopia, Magical Realism, Philosophy, Literary] #1 Sci-Fi, Spiritual; #Wattys2014 Award Winner; Featured on Wattpad, IndieReader, @DIGonUSA "Struck me to the very core of my being." "Very interesting concept of reality... Thought provoking.." "I have been turned to a whole new way of thinking because of you." "Like a seven course meal full of spice and illumination... One does not listen to a classical piece to get to its ending. No. It is the ride, the moment by moment...a genuine Masamune among stories." "It was both personable and philosophical. A rare breed of good story and thought provoking ideas... A virtual standing ovation would not be enough to encapsulate the absolute awe I have of you." "It's not a regular thing to find a piece of work that oozes sophistication and embodies literature and art." "The world Takatsu has created opens to the deeper awareness of another, the draw of another." - Mary L Tabor, Wattpad author, essayist, professor "Offers acute, almost painful observations of the minutiae of life, if life took place in a Murakami snow-globe." - IndieReader Insiders "Vapoury style that seems to hover off world at times...haunting and strange (which is good)...You're on to something different, striking." - B.W. Powe, York University English Professor, award-winning author, poet, philosopher http://EspressoLove.tk

Wild, young and free... Madalas kapag sa murang edad nagsisimula ang isang relasyon, hindi gaanong siniseryoso ang mga bagay-bagay; Rash decisions, immature mindset, juvenile beliefs...but one man excluded himself among those who believe in the theories of young love. He doesn't believe in the ideals. He believes with his heart. Magagawa pa rin kaya niyang ibukod ang sarili hanggang wakas? There are some hearts who would never take their first heartbreak too lightly. Ang iba ay ginagawa pa itong pundasyon sa pagkakaroon ng baluktot na paniniwala sa relasyon at pag-ibig. Some guaranteed detestation from their erstwhile love. Just like how he bled himself dry. Everything was used to be so perfect for Dean Cornelius Ortigoza. From an up and coming rock and roll career to supportive significant others...sa murang edad ay kulang na lang at lalagpasan na niya ang mga pangarap. Mga pangarap nila. One more step to get ahold of his dreams. All in just one single reach. Just one more...until a requisition of vow became a misstep that took a three hundred and sixty degree turn. Inside out.

❛WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU MAKE THE TEN MOST POWERFUL GODS ALIVE PLAY A GAME OF MUSICAL CHAIRS WITH ONE SEAT?❜ They fight - to the death. They fight over three crowns and a throne with steel spiked maces. They despair a little more everyday keeping their vows. They wander in hospitals to find a cure for their torn hearts. They haunt castles and secret passages. They betray the ones they love the most. They are dying women and miserable men. They make peace with their enemies, not friends. Girls of rivers with hair like the night dance down the moon stairs. Goddesses of flame hold out hands which crumble and burn. This story sings of three rings. Of forgotten maps. Of a queen who should not be alive after all she has suffered. But most importantly, it sings of three gilded crowns studded with the jewels of the heavens. Crowns of glass. ➳ Shortlisted for the Wattys 2018. ➳ Now a featured Wattpad story. ➳ Winner of over fifteen prestigious awards. ➳ Highest rank: #2 in Fantasy. ❛NO ONE TOLD ME THAT BEING A QUEEN WOULD MEAN PAYING THE PRICE OF POWER WITH STEEL AND BLOOD, DARLING.❜ rubyruins | all rights reserved ©

Vannessa Ingrid Concepcion has lived majority of her life being called the atrocious one; the appalling, and the utterly revolting. She believes that weakness attracts oppression, and that oppression favors the bold and the tough. She shouldn't have room for weakness, especially in the world where men prey on women. Refusing to be a victim of these men, she has vowed not to let her guard down even with the utterly alluring gentleman, Jax Andrew Dela Fuerte.
