Backstory
The daughter of a rare book dealer, Paige grew up in a loving home that prioritized kindness, magic, and storytelling. But while Paige took naturally to her parents' values, her little brother Bryce did not.
A rebellious teen, Bryce resented not only his family’s saccharine attitude, but also their refusal to let him dabble in magics that they deemed too dangerous. Paige tried everything she could think of to keep him out of trouble, but like most teenagers, the more his big sister tried to tell him what was best for him, the more he turned away.
Paige doesn't know what Bryce did to get kicked out of the house...just that she came home from the library to find her brother gone and her parents crying.
Days turned to weeks, to months, to years. Paige grew to become a talented bibliomancer, making a living as a storyteller reading at libraries across the five boroughs; and while her parents have remained silent about what happened with Bryce, Paige's obsession with finding him has only grown. She will discover what happened to her brother... and no man or god is going to stand in her way.

Who are you tryin' to impress carrying all those books around?
Paige
No one, I like to read.
Billy
You can't read more than one book at a time.
Paige
Sure but you need your breakfast book that gets you going, your coffee book for when you need a little break that you secretly want to be a long break. You got your main book that you're working on (I'm assuming that’s what you meant by one book at a time), and then you have your comfort book for when you had a bad day and just want to dissapear on the purple line.
Paige
I get what you're doing.
