I made the heading more specific.
My only other note is that I am done making promises I can't keep. The length will be how the length will be and I will post it when I post it. I can't see the future, but I imagine I might have ulcers in it, and I really don't need my poor uploading habits to add to that stress. Sorry, guys.

Isaac Bade-
I looked around and briefly got out of my chair to grab a book off the shelf; I'd been here for far over an hour and I needed something to immerse myself in. ((A John Green book? Why not! Looking for Alaska? Let's do it.)) Looking for Alaska. The book was black with hypothetical cigarette smoke on the cover. On the back cover flap, a brief bio of the author said that John Green had written other books: The Fault in Our Stars; Will Grayson, Will Grayson; An Abundance of Katherines; and Paper Towns. He had also won several awards and, interestingly enough, had his own youtube channel. Despite his apparent fame, he didn't seem too haughty. I had a feeling he'd been kind of a nerd on the high school social hierarchy.
The book started with a harangue of acknowledgements. There are a lot of people who go into a book. The novel itself was divided into two sections: before and after. Our pages, they are many, I thought, and started reading.
(Vital Vocab 15 does not exist.)
