My review for boy meets boy and some updates
here is My Video review for boy meets boy and some updates
Book & Author: Boy Meets Boy by David Levithan
Publish Date: May 2005 (Paperback)
Publisher: Random House Children's Books
Pages: 185pp
Rating and Why: 4 1/2......i feel like it was missing something
Book & Author: Boy Meets Boy by David Levithan
Publish Date: May 2005 (Paperback)
Publisher: Random House Children's Books
Pages: 185pp
Rating and Why: 4 1/2......i feel like it was missing something
The Whole Really Small Review, The video is longer and better
This book was really good, (4.5 stars to me) David Levithan is an amazing writer who made an amazing word where everyone is accepted for who they are: gay, lesbian, straight, drag queen, or whatever.
All the characters where dynamic, they all grew up by the end of the book and though it's shorter than most stories i've read there is so much that goes on in these 185 pages that doesn't make it seem like it's that short.
All and all this book is basically about finding out who you are and being loved and accepted anyway told through a combination of the kinds of people who need to find out the most: gay people, and teenagers.
Whoever you are you should read this book because it was really amazing and it's not just or gay kids, its for anyone who feels like they need to be accepted for who they are.

what about The Month Of Sequels ?
so...... i broke my month of sequels rule (AKA the only rule) which was pretty obvious..... only read sequels.
i have started Boy Meets Boy by David Levithan because i got SUPER BORED with my soul to save..... so i cheated, i'll finish this and then i'll read the scorch trials which is the sequel to the maze runner and then maybe i'll go back and try to read it again
Also my video review for Vixen (the flappers #1) By Jillian Larkin will be up either today, or thursday. 3-second over veiw....IT WAS REALLY GOOD. to me it was worth 5 stars and i can't wait to read the second book in the series Ingenue which comes out August 9th.....AKA an eternity.

Month Of Sequels (?)
so guys i'm starting to rethink this whole month of sequels thing..... i mean i have a lot of books in my MOS list and adding together midterms coming up... i'm not sure i can finish them all.
i know it seems like a "no crap" moment but i didn't realize it until i was actually looking at the pile in my room and i thought "wow that's a lot of books!"
so i don't know, i probably won't do the whole stack because it's definitely something like 20(+) books so.....i'll probably only read the important but quick reads like 3 "The Clique series" books, and 2 "Vamps series" books, and a few big ones like the "His Dark Materials" trilogy and my 2 "The Secret Series" books.
just voicing a thought let me know what you think, please!
see ya guys,
peace love and books
