Chapter 35 Cristina
CRISTINA
EMMA
Hola, wey!
I read the book you gave me
It’s a training log from Madrid
from 1901
That may sound interesting, but
let me assure you, it is not
It is very boring
I don’t know who would care
how many successful strikes
Thomas Lightwood performed
with throwing knives
Or how many times he climbed
a rope to the ceiling of the
training room
Or how many times he disarmed
his instructor with his bolas
I certainly do not care
I have learned three things
1. Whoever Thomas Lightwood
was, he wrote everything down.
Too much of everything.
2. While this book is
supernaturally boring, there
is nothing magical or sinister
about it
3. You’re lucky I love you so much
