And there are so many of them that anyone can find something in their interest areas. <br /><br />But yes I don't know what I would have done without Maggie Stiefvater or Elisabeth Wein or so many others (though I haven't yet read We Were Liars and I WILL SOON). There are so many good YA authors, you just need to do a little more work to find them :-)Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00113180708896008365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675785862152144030.post-44917127389823875462016-06-02T16:50:07.917-05:002016-06-02T16:50:07.917-05:00Thank you! :)Thank you! :)Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00113180708896008365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675785862152144030.post-42792835015572773202016-06-02T16:48:17.257-05:002016-06-02T16:48:17.257-05:00Thank you!

I love your origin story (especially since this is the THIRD day of my summer break after 11th grade) Also thanks for the giveaway (book depository doesn't ship to India so I'm glad it's an ebook from amazon instead) I think I would like six impossible things, because I've read other books at the same school by Fiona Wood. Or maybe Scarlett Undercover. I'm so glad you're spreading the classics love because I also love classics (especially Jane Eyre!) I need to read more classics. YA bloggers are the best.

I really want to read Rose Under Fire, so I'd probably get that? I can't get it here, and I LOVED code name verity. And Jane Eyre was very good, and I have a copy already so I'm not missing out too much *consoles self* anyway, HAPPY BLOGOVERSARY YOU ARE SO COOL BUT DON'T GO CRAZY WITH THE GLITTER. <br />weavingwaveswords.wordpress.comSharMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03756984319034623444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675785862152144030.post-81693098925283279212016-05-23T14:53:52.134-05:002016-05-23T14:53:52.134-05:00I would love a bit of that cake!? GEE THANKS. NOW ...I would love a bit of that cake!? GEE THANKS. NOW I'M HUNGRY. But anyway, happpyyyy blogoversary! ~bursts into a rousing chorus of song~ Sadly I am not US ONLY, but I already own RUF and have read JE so it's not too much of a disaster! XD I would like to reread JE, soon, though, it's been too long ...<br /><br />I love your story about origins! Mine is just that my friend had a blog and was like yo Emily, start a blog, so I did. Though at the start I had no clue what was going on. But I love your classics story. It's so true. My average Goodreads reading is like 4.something, and there are so many other bloggers with like average 3.12, and I'm like, friends, READ CLASSICS AND YOU'LL PROBABLY LIKE THEM. It confuses me so much, people are like "well, I picked this book up and I thought it'd be yet another sappy faux-fantasy love triangle and it was!", and I'm like, well, try Austen?!!!<br /><br />*ahem* That was a bit of a rant, sorry. But thank goodness for YA bloggers, eh, to do the sifting of the sappy faux-fantasy love triangles for us, and leave us with the gold. If I'd not started blogging I might never have heard of Maggie Stiefvater or We Were Liars, and that is a horrifying thought.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08057480293595295502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675785862152144030.post-48963926146716574402016-05-21T16:21:20.704-05:002016-05-21T16:21:20.704-05:00Happy Blogversary!

But now, it's just a place to write about myself and things. :) <br /><br />I first started reading due to my mom and my grandpa. Both encouraged reading and would read to me. My grandpa even told me I'm his favorite grandchild because I always read. ;) Jaimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03689116701916581439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2675785862152144030.post-37939716763926295552016-05-17T08:15:54.698-05:002016-05-17T08:15:54.698-05:00Opps I meant my second yea blogoversary.
