The...red book. The red book that magically fell to your feet before you had a vision of Rubia. The book that "that person isn't around to read anymore".
WHY ARE YOU NOT CHECKING IT OUT?
These kinds of things always lower the rating of a work for me. The details are a what makes a story great. Idc if the MC is smart, dumb, Good or Evil. THAT book could not be ignored. NO ONE would ignore it. It's against natura.
