The novel follows a boy named Will who wakes up on the morning of his 11th birthday and finds his family, neighbors and world frozen in time. Reading this classic 1973 novel was a formative experience for me. If you need a reminder that life is not set in stone, here are six expansive and empowering young adult fantasy books that show us that real people are capable of extraordinary things. Not only what might happen to a character, but what they can make happen. ![]() My favorite fantasy stories run on possibility. ![]() ![]() ![]() Even if, at first, the older woman isn’t as welcoming as Skyler could have hoped. That the desk next to hers belongs to her all-time idol Caroline McNamara only adds to her motivation. When Skyler Ruiz leaves her small local TV station for a much more exciting job as a reporter in San Diego, she’s intent on proving herself and making the most of the opportunity. I’m still a Brayden fan however, I’m still cheering for her and rooting for her, and if that means yelling at characters for part of the book, so be it. For about 80% of the book, I was in Brayden heaven, then the requisite breakup occurred and from then on, it felt off. With Exclusive, I found that feeling I love when reading Brayden’s books. Because there was something new, something exciting. That’s why I found a lot to love in Marry Me, despite the second part ruining the first one for me. I know I’ve overrated some of her books in my reviews because I want to love them so much, but in recent years, they haven’t worked for me as well as older ones. I’ve said it often, I was lucky enough to translate two of her books and I loved it, loved every word. I loved 80% of this book and yelled in my head for about 15%. ![]() 7/8/2023 0 Comments Going Off Script by Jen Wilde![]() I really liked the characters and loved all the different friendships & relationships throughout the book. I think so many people will find Going Off Script relatable. There were so many diverse characters in this story, which was really great! Some of the things talked about throughout the story are so relevant to today as well, which was another great point. I had a lot of fun reading this book! I ended up really liking it a lot. I loved the way it sounded in the description and that cover is pretty amazing, so I was excited when I received a copy from the publisher. ![]() I have never read a book by Jen Wilde before, so I wasn’t really sure what to expect with Going Off Script. It was just released last week (May 21st). I received an ARC of Going Off Script from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Determined to prove her worth as a writer, Bex drafts her own script and shares it with the head writer―who promptly reworks it and passes it off as his own! Bex is understandably furious, yet…maybe this is just how the industry works? But when they rewrite her proudly lesbian character as straight, that’s the last straw! It’s time for Bex and her crush to fight back. Unfortunately, the internship isn’t quite what she expected… instead of sitting in a crowded writer’s room volleying ideas back and forth, Production Interns are stuck picking up the coffee. ![]() ![]() ![]() Goodreads Description: Seventeen-year-old Bex is thrilled when she gets an internship on her favorite tv show, Silver Falls. ![]() 7/7/2023 0 Comments A song of ice and fire book 4![]() ![]() ![]() At this late date, it’s almost amusing (if you’re into dark comedy) that Martin’s readers, spoiled by the two-year gaps between A Game of Thrones and A Clash of Kings and Clash and A Storm of Swords, were up in arms about the five- and six-year halts, respectively, between books 4 and 5. A decade later-and roughly 11 years after Martin mentioned the first chapters ticketed for the penultimate installment of his series- Winds is still vaporware, aside from a smattering of sample chapters released long ago. I hope it doesn’t take me six years like this last one has.” ![]() ![]() Realistically, it’s going to take me three years to finish the next one at a good pace. Martin, fresh off the announcement of the release date for A Dance With Dragons (the fifth book in his beloved fantasy series), said, “Hopefully, the last two books will go a little bit quicker than this one has, but that doesn’t mean they’re going to be quick. This past Tuesday, another milestone passed mostly unobserved: the 10th anniversary of the publication of an interview in which author George R.R. This Saturday will mark the 10th anniversary of the airing of the first episode of Game of Thrones. On Wednesday morning, HBO’s official Game of Thrones Twitter account cryptically tweeted, “Winter is coming.” And as soon as they saw it, countless A Song of Ice and Fire fans, burned by years of false rumors and misleading potential teasers for The Winds of Winter, thought, “No, it’s not.” ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() What should I do now?” Sono immediately said, “‘Thanks for everything. Stephen Mitchells translation of Lao Tzus Tao Te Ching (The Book of the Way) has sold over half a million copies worldwide. “I’ve said your prayer over and over, and yet nothing in my life has changed I’m still the same selfish person as before. ![]() I have no complaint whatsoever.’” The man did as he was instructed, for a whole year, but his heart was still not at peace. One day a fellow Buddhist, having made a long trip to see her, asked, “What can I do to put my heart at rest?” She said, “Every morning and every evening, and whenever anything happens to you, keep on saying, ‘Thanks for everything.

Van Nostrand imported reptiles of all shapes and sizes, usually concealed in the suitcases or clothing of his mules, and sold them to collectors and pet stores. Mike Van Nostrand inherited Strictly Reptiles, an import-export business in Florida, from his father, Ray, turning it into a multimillion-dollar smuggling operation. Freelance writer Christy’s debut is an enthusiastic but scattered chronicle of the rise and fall of a lizard kingpin and the federal agent who pursued him. ![]() Albino pythons, endangered lizards and other reptiles are the currency of an underworld as dangerous and lucrative as the drug trade. ![]() |
