Introducing... the Penguin Book Vending Machine! In 1935, Sir Allen Lane was inspired to create Penguin Books when he couldn't find a good book to read at Exeter St. David's train station. We've gone back to our roots to ensure modern day commuters won't face the same problem.

I think I want to clarify to people. I don’t go by Coco because it’s an easier name for people to swallow. It’s the first word my baby brother said, before mom before dad, I was first for him. But please don’t forget my name is Kouthar.
