Review: The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
This is the story of a quirky girl and her eccentric family, of wealth and obsession, of magic and the need to belong to something bigger. It’s a very eclectic novel, filled with a number of elements that manage to mesh together in a way that feels comfortable and natural.

5 Products they need to make for Book Bloggers
Sometimes things are invented with such a limited use and small fanbase, that you wonder how even one person could conceive and invest in it, let alone several. These crazy things somehow exist out there, but I could easily think of five products that bloggers desperately need right now. Why haven’t they been invented? Why hasn’t some enterprising entrepreneur begun mass marketing a new invention to make book blogger’s lives useful?
Review: The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
Green is a fantastic writer and storyteller, and I see his work as a wonderful example of YA literature done right. While I can certainly understand why some would find issues with the subject matter, I firmly believe that every reader who enjoys YA needs to give this one, at the very least, a try. It’s not perfect, but it certainly comes close, and its emotional power cannot be denied.
