Where I hang out on the internet #2. Basically this post is a shortlist of the links my friends and I send each other on Facebook. Here are some fun things I’ve found online over the past couple weeks. Basically this post is a shortlist of the links my friends and I send each other on Facebook. Http:/ www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2015/jun/22/bridget-christie-feminists-sex-men-book-extract? An amazing article about feminism.

The Opposite of Loneliness
https://22isstillyoungadult.wordpress.com/2015/06/24/the-opposite-of-loneliness/comment-page-1
The Opposite of Loneliness. I just finished an English Literature degree. I’m used to reading words by dead people. But so many of the authors I wrote essays on were the kind of famous that makes people stories in themselves, their deaths no more real to me than their fiction. The Opposite of Loneliness. I’m one of those people who worries about dying a lot. Reading the book made me anxious. My favourite of Marina’s essays was. Even Artichokes Have Doubts. I think this quote in Marina’s essay, from Kevin...

A Thousand Pieces of You
https://22isstillyoungadult.wordpress.com/2015/08/05/a-thousand-pieces-of-you
A Thousand Pieces of You. I wanted to enjoy Claudia Gray’s A Thousand Pieces of You a lot more than I actually did. It wasn’t that there were any elements I outright hated, it’s that somehow this book and I lacked a connection. Sounds simple, right? Not so much. When Marguerite finds Paul, her certainty of his guilt starts to falter. It seems that her father’s death is part of a much more sinister plot in which Marguerite herself has a greater part than she ever knew. I wanted to enjoy Claudia Gray’s.

My Top Three Female Characters
https://22isstillyoungadult.wordpress.com/2015/08/16/my-top-three-female-characters
My Top Three Female Characters. I think the need to read about women I related to (and women I didn’t) was part of what drove me toward reading. The girls I read there were real. They made mistakes and they had complicated friendships. They weren’t simply the subplot to somebody else’s epiphany. They were my friends and the people I aspired to be like. Unfortunately on TV this can start to feel like the norm. So with that in mind, today I want to write about three of the women in young adult fiction who ...

Sequel Watch: The Diviners. The second book in. Series comes out soon. With this in mind, it seemed like. She wants to be famous and is at times ruthless in the pursuit of that goal. She strikes up a very ill-advised deal with a journalist. She knows how to take advantage of a situation. Horrifying occult-style murders happening across the city? An opportunity to get more tourists into the museum. If that opportunity also means getting herself in the papers? July 8, 2015. July 28, 2015. You are commentin...

Book Blogger. Series Addict. Avid Reader. Review: Dorothy Must Die By Danielle Paige. May 3, 2016. May 3, 2016. Dorothy Must Die (Dorothy Must Die #1) by Danielle Paige. I didn’t ask for any of this. I didn’t ask to be some kind of hero. But when your whole life gets swept up by a tornado – taking you with it – you have no choice but to go along, you know? They say she found a way to come back to Oz. They say she seized power and the power went to her head. And now no one is safe. And I have a mission.
