[ none of these are 'classics' that he recognizes, but that doesn't matter. he's plucking book after book off the shelf. anything with a plucky protagonist and a happy ending will do. bonus points for young female protags tbh. he ends up with about five books since he doesn't think he can feasibly carry anymore. he considers ducking out and ditching her, he really does. but maybe he doesn't need this girl mad at him, since he's pretty sure she's got superpowers or something.
it's easy to predict where she'll be because he just thinks of karen. karen would want to know everything about this place the second she got here. frank wishes he knew less already. he doesn't mean to sneak up on her, but well: silence. he doesn't see her at first until he looks up. jesus christ does she even know what a secret is, if she's so keen to keep it from him? frank ducks back into the shelves before she can spy him and texts her instead. ]
