#Chapter 8 (Doris' POV) – Our love for books
The library was peaceful; not many bothered me here because they didn't share the same love for books as I did. I often worked here alone and mainly on delivery days because I was the best at organizing the books.
Not many servants knew how to read due to a lack of education. However, as a child, before I was brought to the House Arnold Palace, I was homeschooled. I was taught reading and writing and from there I grew my passion. My dream, once I gain freedom, is to become a writer and write about all the things that I see as I travel the world.
Of course, I had never told anyone of that dream except for Beth.
I got my passion for reading and writing from my mother. She was the one who homeschooled me and grew my passions. She also had a love for books and only wanted bigger and better things for me. Once she passed away, I was taken to the palace to work as a slave.
