20-year-old Thomas doesn't like anybody during his year abroad - or in general - except his roommate and best friend Errol, a future movie star and the not-so-secret love of his life. After living together in Brussels, the two set out on an extraordinary summer odyssey across Europe that stretches the nature of love, friendship, and dependence - until fame, fortune and the real world get in the way. If you've ever wondered what's really going on inside the mind of an introvert - or if you've struggled to explain it to someone else - you won't want to miss this deeply personal (and darkly humorous) look into the true nature of personality and human connection.

Ammie Brians just wants a peaceful last few months before she goes off to college. With no last-minute love interest, no newfound best friend and certainly not the prospect of having to move again in the middle of her final year because of a job offer her mother receives. But most importantly to be able to use the last ounce of will she has left to suppress the memories of her twin sister Annie Brians and the week they both spent together when she and her family came to Washington for the first time to meet with Ammie since they both were forcefully separated at 3 years old. Ammie wants to forget about the encounter, even though it was the best week of her entire life, because since then Annie never tried to contact her again. Whereas Annie Brians who lives halfway across the world in England simply wants to continue living the privileged life she has been living with all the love, care and kindness that comes with it from her father and stepmother. But as they always say 'no matter the plans you make or desires you have; life will do whatever it wants'.

Introverts, I call out to you: This book is about Athena, the nerdiest of introverts. However, like everyone she was hit by the curse of falling in love. Unable to manage her feelings, she can't hold it anymore. What to do? She fell in love with her best friend, James but...her rival is only perfection itself. How to beat a perfect extrovert magnificent person? Not a single flaw compared to us, introverts. Bree is perfect. Who in the world would choose a flawed but unique introvert rather than a goddess, a princess who is just perfection? This is the first book of an amazing sequel. It will bring you back to the reality of how hard life as an introvert is. Hard but breathtaking at the same time.Each and every introvert is unique in their own way, not all of us react or act the same way but we're not as cold-hearted as people think we are. We have feelings too... Athena is exactly like a secondary character in movies or books. The kind of character we despise or that we don't pay much attention to. Bree and James are usually the protagonists. The lead character, the prince and the gay friend, who apparently has no other life than be devoted to the lead! A typical classic combination often found in romantic movies and books. This case is different, it's from a different perspective, from the point of view which is an outsider of this original combination. The feelings of this secondary character, her events, her point of views. I hope that you'll be able to allow Athena and sometimes James to express themselves. Worth a try, don't you think?

Nolan, an unapproachable guy who ignores the existence of all his schoolmates, sleeps in all of his classes. Normally, this wouldn't be Chelsea Arnold's problem--she does her best to pay attention in class and attends gym like a good, normal student. Unfortunately, she just so happens to be his assigned desk partner in many classes. She's frequently forced to wake him in English class and ends up earning the unofficial title of Nolan's Wake-up Alarm--a title that nobody in the entire school covets. The last thing she wants is to interact with him more than she absolutely has to. One day, their gym teacher sends her to bring him back to class, which he always skips for some reason. When she accidentally shines her flashlight in his sleeping face, it triggers a chain of events that gradually intertwines their lives together. It's hard to be a normal student when you start befriending the school oddball. It doesn't help that he has more secrets than the Big Ben has stairs. ----- Complete.

Thomas moved into a cheap apartment, so he could be on his own. He didn't expect roommates, much less dead ones. (Fair warning- This story is only a first draft! I never thought I would finish it, so I never bothered to make a plot outline or go over things before I published them. Therefore, there's some strings left untied. Don't worry, they aren't too important)
Once Upon a Dream - LAMP by kxngmxrs

In this world, you learn of your soulmate at age 16. You get an hour in their body per soulmate - it's only in a dream world similar to reality, though. On Logan's birthday, he, Roman, Patton, and Virgil get their dreams. It is customary to leave a basic introduction card next to your bed, as the Dream Scape copies reality. One of the four, however, gives no hint to who he is. Follow the group as they begin the search for each other. There are trigger warnings by chapter. After reviewing the Wattpad guidelines, I have decided it is best if I add a Mature warning to this story. This is due to potentially triggering themes related to mental health and very very brief conversations about sexual relations. Characters do not belong to me.
