Like all books the pages of this one are composed of lint.

At first the readers do not notice that the pages of this book are unlike any other. However, as the readers progress they notices that the sheets become more coarse and ragged, but still continues reading. These become thicker and spongier until the last page can be used to absorb their tears or other possible fluids when they have to return once again to the library.

       No relation to that famous Gauteng resthome, "Veldt Lie Inn", or my local vicar trying to jazz up the Easter services, "I'd Liven Lent".

       I don't understand this idea, but it does make me want to write a book where the pages get harder and harder to read as you get towards the end, until in the last few pages the story becomes completely unreadable and that's it. Online forums would go nuts trying to analyze and improve the text to figure out how it ended.
