The Entangled Tales
[Featured on @CoffeeCommunity under the reading list "Latte Macchiato" on 28th November 2021] A little bit of adventure, a hint of mystery, a dash of fantasy, a pint of history. Served with a dollop of romance. A series of drabbles, anecdotes, short plots I thought would be fun to write about. Take on the challenges of the first day of a new school with Stella Jean Covey, or take a glimpse of Raven and Oliver's dilemma. Maybe embark with Jake and Alice into their world, or discover new feelings with Neil, Sia and George. Stumble upon an accidental trip with Milo and Joanna, or maybe, a midnight mis-adventure with Whitney. Lots more to come, just take a look inside!Complete
