If you do not know anything about Abyssarianism or the Abyssarianism.com website, but you like Cupiderosbooks.com’s engaging, entertaining, enlightening, religious-philosophical-religious fiction, choose from one of the three READING ASSIGNMENTS BELOW:
What if a book could see you?
What if it knew you were afraid of endings? Or that you read too fast to feel the words? Or that you thought stories were lies?
What if it asked you the one question you’d never answered out loud?
The Questioning Book is a magical, mysterious, and surprisingly funny adventure about five children who are about to miss their last chance to discover reading before the world convinces them it’s not for them.
Elara is a speed reader who’s never paused long enough to feel a story.
Jake has never finished a book—because endings hurt too much.
Julie reads only history. Fiction, she says, is just lies.
Susana thinks she’s “not a reader.” She doesn’t realize she just needs a partner.
Milo escapes into video games. The library is too scary to enter.
But the The Questioning Book—a three-hundred-year-old cursed librarian with snake-like amber eyes, two mouths, a terrible sense of humor, and a burning desire to go home doesn’t give up.
With questions that reveal who they really are, patterns that change how they see the world, and a math problem on page 45 that will make them groan, each child discovers something more than reading.
They discover themselves.
A heartfelt, humorous, and unforgettable journey for anyone who’s ever been afraid to turn the page.
“Reading is not a punishment. It’s a superpower.”
Between the old pet store and the laundromat, there’s a library that wasn’t there yesterday.
It’s tall and narrow, with stained glass windows that glow like rubies and sapphires. The door is oak, banded with iron, and the handle is shaped like a lion’s head biting a ring.
Inside, the bookshelves stretch into darkness. Dust floats like tiny stars. Candles flicker in iron sconces.
And on a stone lectern at the center of the room sits a massive book with two snake-like amber eyes, two jagged-toothed mouths, and a voice like an ancient professor who’s been grading papers for three centuries.
The Questioning Book has a secret.
It was once a human librarian named Oliver Lamont. A curse turned him into this book—and only one hundred children can set him free.
Elara is Reader 96. She reads too fast and never feels the words.
Jake is Reader 97. He hates endings and won’t finish anything.
Julie is Reader 98. She thinks stories are lies.
Susana is Reader 99. She can’t read alone.
Milo is Reader 100—the last one. The one who was too scared to enter the library but will have to face it in the end.
To turn each page, they must answer a question. To leave the library, they must learn to read. And on page 45, they’ll find a math problem that’s been waiting for them for centuries.
The Questioning Book is more than a story. It’s a lesson in courage, curiosity, and the power of words.
Perfect for readers aged 8–12 who love mystery, humor, and adventure.
Every reader starts somewhere. Some start here.
Deep in the heart of an ancient, forgotten library—a library that appears only when you need it most—there lives a book with two mouths, glowing snake-like amber eyes, and a sarcastic British accent.
The Questioning Book has been waiting three hundred years for one hundred children to learn to love reading. Only then can its curse be broken.
Elara reads too fast. She devours words like candy but never tastes them.
Jake hates endings. He stops every book three pages before the final chapter.
Julie thinks stories are lies. She reads only history.
Susana believes she’s “not a reader.” She’s never reads alone.
Milo would rather play video games than open a book.
Five reluctant readers. One terrifying, ancient book. Ten patterns that change everything.
To turn the page, they must answer the question. To leave the library, they must learn to read.
And somewhere on page 45, they’ll find a math problem that makes them groan—and a pencil that’s been passed from reader to reader for centuries.
The Questioning Book isn’t just a story about learning to read. It’s a story about finding your voice, finishing what you start, and discovering that you’re never truly alone.
“Answer correctly. Turn the page. Change your life.”
