Load More Replies... I have a lot, sorry in advance!
1. Has anyone here read cruel prince or a court of thorns and roses?
2. Any tips for high school? (...I just got four pieces of homework. It's the first day.)
3. Fantasy or dystopian genre book recommendations? (I'm fourteen, so maybe something from the YA genre: Hunger games, Percy Jackson, Cruel Prince, etc etc)
4. Can anyone tell me how to come out to my family😭😭
Thanks so much whether you can answer my questions or not
High school tips, really just do your homework. It’s so easy to fall behind and so hard to catch back up, and it can screw up your GPA. Don’t mess around with trying to be “popular” or involve yourself in friend groups with a lot of drama. Find yourself a quiet little friend group with people you can be weird around and they won’t judge. I found mine in theater :) Surround yourself with people with good study habits, so they aren’t a bad influence. Group study sessions are great and really help you get a lot done, if you’re actually planning to study. Fantasy book reccomendarion, I highly recommend the Wings of Fire series. My favorite is the second arc.
ooh I have read one or two books from wings of fire--never got around to the whole series, but ill look into it for sure! Thanks for the advice and recommendation!

If you are not sure I would suggest casually bringing up queer topics, such as a famous person coming out, or maybe mention a music artist that you listen to is queer (warning if they respond badly it may result in prohibiting said artist), and go from there.
2 - Do your homework daily. Don't fall behind, it's really hard to catch up later. 3 - Blue Moon Rising - fantasy - Simon R. Green. 4 - Do you have a friend/family friend/adult you feel safe with? If so, let them know you're going to come out to your family. Have somewhere to go if things go badly. Be very calm about things if you can "Parents, I want to talk to you about something very personal." Having someone else there, like your family friend, can make people hold emotional reactions in.
I'm trying to do my homework every day, but already left some pieces for this weekend 😅 I'll put it in my schedule to do today! Blue Moon Rising definitely sounds super interesting and I'll be adding it to my TBR! And I might be aiding my bestie in coming out and I'll try to get her to help me when I'm ready. Thanks so much for the advice and recommendations!
Load More Replies...I can't help with most of these, but for 3 if you Google "what should I read next" there are of websites that make book recommendations based on various things - books you like, genres you read, things you enjoy in novels etc. I'd suggest looking at some of those and see if you get good recommendations.
I recommend Harry Potter. For high school do what your teachers expect. Don't delay doing homework
I've read the series but am trying to get ahold of other books connected to the Harry Potter series, like quidditch through the ages or the tales of beedle the bard. great recommendation and advice!
Load More Replies...3. All of Julie Kagawa's books. She's a not very known author but her books are incredible.
I had to search her up, but her books definitely sound intriguing. I'll definitely look into it a little more!

Did you know there was actually a study done on that? Unfortunately I forgot how much wood a woodchuck can chuck.
What's your favorite book and why?
All of Harry Potter books. I grew up reading the books. There's more to the story that magic
'Neverseen', from Shannon Messenger's "Keeper of the Lost Cities." The whole series is amazing but I love the character development in the fourth book
Right now, 'Anger Is An Energy' - John Lydon. Interesting person with an interesting life. All time favourite that is no longer in print, 'Circle Of Three' series, by Isobel Bird. It's about 3 unlikely girls who build a friendship around one commonality of discovered an interest and passion for Wicca, and form their own little aspiring coven.
I love "Space Boy" by Stephiane McCranie. FAVE series of graphic novels of all time!
I have two at the moment (I like them equally and I couldn’t pick); My Life In The Fish Tank- Barbara Dee because I like the main character and the situation (I suck at explaining books) and Not If I Can Help It- Carolyn Mackler for the same reason as the first one. I could explain better but not at the moment
Blue Moon Rising - Simon R. Green. It's funny, and heartfelt, and has some darkness in there, and has a really fun twist on a high fantasy. Other books have done it, true, but I don't think most of them have done it as well. Pratchett has the corner on humor fantasy, and Tolkien is the ur-High Fantasy, but Blue Moon Rising is my favourite blend of the two. I'm on my sixth copy.
CRUEL PRINCE. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THE WHOLE SERIES. The characters and the plot are all beautifully written. Had about a dozen plot twists too, and I didn't see ANY of it coming. It's in the fantasy genre and is a TRUE enemies to lovers.
What....is your quest?
to be happy and once i am finally happy, to help others around me become happy
What's the worst thing you've experienced?
COVID. Didn’t help that my parents got a divorce during COVID and were arguing for a lot of it and I couldn’t get away because I had to stay in the house.
Thinking I was good friends with a guy who was gaslighted me for years
What's a quote that just hits different?
What is your favorite thing to do before bed?
What is you passion in life?
I never wanted to be a mom. One day realised time was ticking and said f**k it, lets do it. Well if that child isn't my passion I dunno what is. I feel so lucky to have her and know and her teach her & watch her grow. Can't believe I didn't do it sooner.
