"Hushflowers always bloomed when the night was longest. The whole city celebrated the day the bundle of petals peeled apart into rich red-partly because hushflowers were their nation's lifeblood, and partly, Akos though, to keep them all from going crazy in the cold. That evening, on the day of the Blooming ritual he was sweating into his coat as he waited for the rest of the family to be ready, so he went out to the courtyard to cool off." -Carve the Mark by Veronica Roth

That sounds nice! Now to read more! What about you guys? Happy reading!
