“All the books we own, both read and unread, are the fullest expression of self we have at our disposal. ... But with each passing year, and with each whimsical purchase, our libraries become more and more able to articulate who we are, whether we read the books or not.” —Nick Hornby
Greetings, dear readers.
As a student, nerd, and all-around bookworm, I have decided to start a blog. This blog will be a place where you can find reviews and suggestions concerning your next good read. As a twenty-something student, I have found it terribly challenging to hunt down good young adult literature. I think it is safe to say that there are some of us out there that aren't ready for boring grown-up books. In addition, we also are no longer able to tolerate the melodramatic frivolity of teen supernatural fiction which seems to line far too many shelves at the local bookstore.
I would like to make this blog a sanctuary for the disenfranchised bookworms. Let's bring young adult fiction back.
Bookishly yours,
Vanessa
