Feeling his stomach surge and bubble Leo immediately regretted eating that liqourice wand which he had downed some minutes ago, hopefully he wouldn’t get nauseous. Praying, he cleared his throat to address the assembled book clubbers "A great book treasure is present here this afternoon in your hands with themes ranging from fantasy with wild worlds and magical creatures to adventure with deserted islands and heroines to name a few."
"So why do we read books and continue to read books as we get older?” He glanced briefly at the professors present in the room. “Is it for fun, enjoyment, knowledge or something entirely different, please share your views with us all.”
Downing some soar water that had surfaced in his throat Mr Kitridge continued. "When you’ve shared your views with the circle I want you all to find yourself a partner or two for the next sentiment of the meeting which will involve acting, please invite the professors to join your groups." The professors were there so they should be active too.
"I shall tell you all what you will re-enact when the groups have been formed."
Sierra looked at the librarian with a thoughtful expression. He seemed
way more into books than she was. She was just here for something else to do other than classes and Quidditch. It just seemed like a good idea for some reason or another. Looking across the room, she noted that Kennedy Escalante was here, too. Oh, yeah. It was a
really good idea to come here today.
Turning back to the librarian, she raised her hand.
"I mainly read for knowledge, but reading is also for enjoyment and getting homework assignments done, too," she said.
"Oh, and furthering your own advancement in the world." That was important, too, and as a child, that was one of the main reasons she was so interested in the book she'd brought today. It helped prepare her for years of Quidditch to come.
Oh, they needed a partner? Or a group? Argh. It looked like everyone around her had already found someone.
"Does anybody need a partner or group member?" she asked.
