What the Book Takes

Lo que el libro toma

Balam finally admits what the black book took from him: a mother whose name he can no longer say. Meanwhile the ink is spelling AZUCENA letter by letter, and the girl's memory is running out faster than the alphabet.

Part 2 of 3 in The Book That Reads You

Azucena y Nery van a la tienda de Balam. «Tu nombre está en el libro», dice Azucena. Balam está muy triste.
