Possible side effects include an inability to stop devouring pages despite recurring discomfort, and experiencing exquisite guilt for feeling certain emotions evoked along the way. Intemperance is encouraged, while bearing in mind that no one is watching, and it's not only permissible to feel any emotions that arise, but also perfectly natural.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dire McCain\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Apophenia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.31lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.24w x 0.28d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780692554241\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDíre McCain is a five-dimensional creature who fell through a Lorentzian traversable wormhole into a three-dimensional universe, landing on what was, at the time, the second rock from the Sun.
