On the one hand I know that Ruby is fundamentally the main character of the series and that puts a bit of a limit on how much things can change, but at the same time it would be all kinds of fun if she came out of the tree and was just a DRASTICALLY different person then when she went in. Or if she walks out an just is Summer instead, no new memories but just fully An Adult Woman Who Looks And Acts Like Yang's (step)Mom

Honesty hours: I've been working a summer job at a bookstore for almost two months now. Here are the books I will discreetly shake my head at customers for buying. My literary red flags, if you will.
Anything tarot
Particular romance and romantasy novels that I've been told are basically just soft erotica (ACOTAR being the most popular)
Harlequins, which apparently still exist
Colleen Hoover
The Colleen Hoover merch we sell for some godforsaken reason
Heaven is For Real, When God Winks at You, and other theologically sketchy but inexplicably popular books. I'm always internally thinking, "oh honey, no!"
Giant stack of self help books combined with books from the business section. This suggests a very particular type of person. This type of person scares me.
Especially that one book we have about how to become a "superior man" (??)
More than one book by James Patterson. One book is forgivable; multiple suggests you follow him as an author
More than one book by Danielle Steel (same reason)
Parents buying their kids books that are just "Adult Thing: For Kids!" Like we have a picture book that's called "A Day at Dunder Mifflin" or the one adapted from the Dumb and Dumber movies and I'm like. Don't you think your kid would prefer something that's actually for them??
That guy who bought the collected writings of Lenin, the poetic writings of Mao, and a giant, thousand-page biography of Che Guevara all in one go. You okay there buddy?

If I spent an hour or two doing my hair, my make up, shaving and moisturising my entire body, putting on a gorgeous (and ever so slightly inconvenient) little two piece outfit with matching heels and jewellery, and was greeted by my partner wearing an ugly graphic tee and that stupid little hat I’d loose my absolute shit.

Good news! Mri says my hip is normal! If this is somehow has not stopped the pain or discomfort you can schedule a meeting to talk about follow up! Gotta wait a month though! We know you're only in town for 3 months but dont worry, I'm sure we'll get a lot done before you need to leave again!
