I am going to write that one down on your recommendation. A couple of other things: I am actually jealous of your train journeys, ha. and I checked out a copy of "Tis a Pity Shes a Whore" from my library after reading that you mentioned it in a previous post, so I'll have to let you know what I think! <br />Have a wonderful day! <br /><br />Aspen <br />http://inner-aspen.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16294280372863284579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6022230834119760805.post-56345463212326205792012-08-09T16:10:26.135+01:002012-08-09T16:10:26.135+01:00Every time I visit a WOW post and see the YA books...Every time I visit a WOW post and see the YA books featured, I think: hmm, the blurbs all sound the same!

My biggest issue is that the writers are usually adults and they don't put themselves in a YA mindset and they write as if they are adults and not teenagers. Then the story gets weird and I just can't take it. >.<Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223530687404043978noreply@blogger.com
