Subject: Book found at Toronto airport
Hello!
Three days ago I've found a book at Toronto airport; it was on the floor under one of the chairs, close to the gate nr 13. I decided to take it and between pages I've found a piece of paper with some notes and this e-mail adress written on it. If you're the owner and wish to get it back, I can send it to you. I hope you don't mind that I've read it during my flight. It was quite nice, but I don't like that they got married in the end, I didn't like the guy.
Best regards,
Yuzuru.

First of all: how can you not like that they got married????? It's the greatest romance in the history of literature!!!!
I'm so happy you found my book, I was so mad at myself for losing it. Wouldn't you mind keeping it for a while tho? Judging by your name you live in Japan (correct me if I'm wrong!) and I live in Spain, so I'm afraid it'd cost fortune to mail it. Also, since you have it you should reread it like five times so you'll see the greatness of that love story.
Nice to meet you!

Hi Javi,
nice to meet you too! Yes, I live in Japan, in Sendai. I don't mind keeping it for a while; I think my sister will gladly read it, but I'm not planning to. Darcy was an asshole and I don't care about his stupid reasons. I mean, he got better in the end, but he was still grumpy and unlikeable and I don't get why people are so obsessed with him. By the way, can I ask what were you doing in Toronto? It's pretty far away from Spain. I was there for a student conference, maybe you were there too?
Best wishes,
Yuzuru.

Hi Yuzuru!
Well I agree, he was a bit of an asshole in the beginning, but he changed sooooo much, and we gotta appreciate it, right? If you think Darcy was unlikeabe you should read Jane Eyre, Rochester was a full time creep.
I hope your sister will like it! I've a sister too and she made me read all this romantic English stuff so you can call me a specialist in the field. I'm taking recommendations though!
Wow, a conference? That sounds fancy. What are you studying? I didn't go to university, had to go to work and I guess I'm not made for school anyway. Me and my family were visiting my aunt who lives in Toronto for holiday, you know, just a family stuff.
Best wishes,
Javi.

Okay, you convinced me. Not to rereading Pride and Prejudice (I refuse), but I borrowed Jane Eyre from the library today.
I've an idea. Because the way we exchange information is a bit messy, and I'd prefer to organize it a little bit, if you don't mind? So I'm going to write five facts about myself and you'll do the same. I hope it's fine. So- my name is Yuzuru, I'm 21 and I live in Sendai in Japan. I study biology here, but I actually applied for university in London to study some biochemy. Also, I know close to nothing about classic English literature, apparently. Not a biggest fan of romance novels too, I guess.
You should read The Martian, it's super cool.
Looking forward to your answer!
Yuzuru
