Who were in the behind of this journey, Flashback?

You're an important part of this journey! The idea of creating a website for literature lovers first came to us during the COVID-19 lockdown when we were 8th graders. What started as a simple dream back then grew into something much bigger. After lots of research, brainstorming, and hard work, this platform is now the result of a 14-year-old's vision turned into reality.
