Yes yes yes!!! Rick Riordan is amazing and all of his books are fantastic. His representation of minorities is one of the best parts. Totally recommend everything he's written. Who else is excited for the will and Nico book!?!? Summer 2023!

Rick Riordan is phenomenal. He has tricked me into believing one of my classmates, Devin, is a son of Hypno cause he likes hypnosis and has ADHD. I rest my case.

leia's emotional cupcake (Submission author) 3 years ago
Thanks for asking! This is my original blurb: So there's this girl. Her dad sent her to the town that he grew up in, called Manifest, for the summer. She meets all of these people but the town seems so boring at first. But then, she discovers a little box of mementos and stuff. Then, when she accidentally breaks a pot on the Diviner's property, she starts working on this mysterious woman's property. The Diviner (she's like a fortune teller, but this one really only tells stories from the past) starts to tell the girl (whose name is Abilene Tucker btw) stories about the town's past. I love it, and maybe I cried at the end... I would feel so happy if anyone tried it out!

Why was I downvoted???? It’s my opinion? It says post your favorite book.. not sure what I did wrong here
Gin 3 years ago
You didn't do anything wrong, not at all, but people vote with their feelings and it will be based on their feeling about the book and not your view on it. Though when I thought about it a little more, I wondered if maybe some downvoted because they didn't feel the book suited the intention of the OP which was to garner book recommendations. A lot see it as a duty, rather than a pleasure. In school we were all told to choose a book to read and then give feedback and people laughed when one girl chose the bible. It is always going to be controversial, you need to accept that. We live in a world where some will believe and some will see it as a harmful fiction, and that isn't unreasonable. Religion has caused a great deal of harm, even when we accept that for many it does good. Good on you defending your choice but it isn't a surprising reaction.

of this inventory of written word (53 as of this posting), this book has had the largest impact on human history. fascinating that while a different book might tell you have to live or think or be, this is the one that will cause the greatest strife among those on either side. too often the Bible is discounted by many due to actions perpetrated by those calling themselves Christians who are behaving in such a way that is contrary to Jesus' teachings or God's words. st. augustine said, "never judge a philosophy by its abuse."

I also love To Kill A Mockingbird but apparently it seems to be out of favour due to the woke brigade.
Gin 3 years ago
People who are woke are aware of social and specifically racial injustice, it shouldn't be used in a pejorative manner. I too thoroughly enjoyed the book. However, while we accept it is an excellent book and one written in and of a time we must also reflect on what that might mean for people experiencing racism today. It is out of favour to teach in classrooms in some places. Is that good or bad? https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/why-are-we-still-teaching-kill-mockingbird-schools-ncna812281
