The Phoenix Pencil Company by Allison King

1.0

I should have stopped reading the first time I read about HOW the memories within the pencils come out. But I didn’t - I stopped about 43% of the way in when I realized it was too wordy and boring and my mind kept wandering off… until the pencil memory scenes that made me want to gag. Probably just a problem for me for being squeamish but no thank you.
