Blogging seemed like the only way to get away from facebook without totally being disconnected. My friends don't blog and facebook isn't a reflection on anything about them besides the pictures. I became addicted and just realized that it was the same thing everytime and I could just pick up the phone and call them. Without totally being away from the internet, I decided that I wanted a place where I could constantly talk about what I enjoy in my life most of all: literature and other rainy day activities.
Lyrics, poetry, small-town fashions, and of course my books. All things that I turn to when I want to fall in love again. I hope that this blog is a good replacement from the ever-addicting facebook.
For my first post ever, I've decided to suggest this young adult novel to you: The Other Side of Dark, by Sarah Smith. Published in 2009, it is very relatable to all ages. It was a book I couldn't put down until I finished it in the wee hours of the morning.
Two teenagers, one black and one white, delve into the dangerous history of one of the most historical white families in Boston. Not only are they investigating a dangerous case, but are also being haunted by one of the tragic victims that died protecting the families secret. A must read, about 300 pages, sit down, read&relax, and allow yourself to just melt into the story. It's what I do.
