Lorenzo had been walking around the booskhop with his mouth hanging open as he tried to absorb the sheer number of books contained in the small place. Of course, there were books and stories from his own time, but nothing like this. They were all so shiny, and the thing was, Lorenzo only had basic reading skills. He would never have chosen to pick up something like a book to read it, because, well, he just woudn't be able to.

Hermione accepted them after stacking her pile on one of the empty shelves. "It would be, and I'm not clumsy. Just get distracted sometimes when I'm lost in my thoughts. I thought this place was a good idea to keep my busy, but somehow everything keeps catching up with me." Hermione frowned a little, trying to work out if his comment meant he couldn't read. Or clean. "True, I suppose. Still, not all books have words. There are art books with just images."
