An Introduction

I am a young adult who loves books, and want to share my opinions. I know there are other people out there (in the real world. *shudder*), who also do, or younger or even older people who are interested in what we "young whippersnappers" are interested in these days.

Yes, this in a book review/critic site.

I almost stopped reading a few months ago because I got caught up in the internet. I was watching YouTube for hours a day and almost only read books I was required to read for Language Arts. I think I only read about 10 other books in all of 2013. I feel really bad about that. Really. Really. Bad.

As a child, I read tons of books, one of my life's greatest achievements is that I read all the Magic Tree House books that were out at that time. That was about 50. I spent all my time at the school library, and I seemed to always have my nose in a book. I didn't really do that last year.

To be honest, I miss it.

Now, thanks to several book-related YouTubers, (Ophillia Dagger, booksandquills...) I have begun to read again. Since I still spend a lot of time on the internet, I think that a blog would keep me on it. The internet ruined my reading life, but now, it is going to keep me on top of my reading. I will be telling you all what books I am reading, doing reviews, and doing book recommendations. This is, however, a young adult book website, so if you are younger or older, I apologize in advance if you lose interest.

These are the books I am reading now:

Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs
An Abundance of Kathrines and Papertowns by John Green
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglass Adams
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle 
and two more I cannot remember.

So cheers to a new year of reading!
