What's your secret?
When Charlie's favourite BFDI character, Tennis Ball, got eliminated in BFDIA 24, I was ultimately moved to tears by his speech as he ascended into the sky. I've got his whole speech written down here. Allow me to read it out.
"It is time for the BFDIA public to know the truth. We have witnessed many heart-wrenching eliminations from Donut to Dora to Teardrop to Match to Puffball to Rocky to Firey to Yellow Face to Gelatin to Spongy to Ice Cube to Golfie to Ruby to Bomby to Pencil to Nickel to Fries to Pin and to Coiny. But now I must announce that I, Tennis Ball, have received 41,204 dislikes, 14% more than Needle. I have been eliminated. As the twentieth and final person voted out, I have been rightfully terminated from BFDIA in third place, bringing my journey in this season to a triumphant close. I understand the decision of the Strange, and am at peace with this outcome. My best wishes go to my compatriots, Needle and Book, who will carry on my legacy as they charge head-first into the ever grand finale. I hope you guys have a fun finale!!! GOOOD LUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!"

Psst... is there one more thing you'd like to add?

What's your secret?
If there was one type of book I've never read before, it would be hardcover comics (even though they don't actually exist).
