Ok you guys I need to talk about books! I have been reading some seriously great YA books. First, I just finished The Fault in Our Stars. This book just shattered me. Wow. I'd read some serious hype about it, and I did not at all believe it could really be 5 stars worthy, but, um, it was. I haven't read such meticulous prose in a YA book ever. I'm actually suffering from post-book-itis where whatever I read next is just not going to come close so it's going to be a massive letdown. Anyway. Earlier this week (the drawback to YA- finishing a book in two days) I read For Darkness Shows the Stars, an eminently enjoyable YA dystopian future rewrite of Jane Austen's Persuasion. Before that, of course, was Divergent and Insurgent, which, OMG, if you at all enjoyed Hunger Games you need to read these books! Now I'm pretending like I'm going to read Naomi Klein's Shock Doctrine but it's already kinda depressing, so I'll probably just read the third book in a pretty crappy YA series about fallen angels being all broody and having problems.
