Yes, I know, I should be writing, but for me, when I need the downtime, I start delving into books. And this means books of all sorts of genres. As a writer and a martial artist, I tend to pick up books about fighting. One of my editors commented that she loved my fighting scenes, my reading is one of the reasons why I can write them so well. Not to mention,...
Banning books, are you kidding me?
Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson My rating: 5 of 5 stars | View all my reviews All I can say is this should be required reading for girls and boys, maybe it’ll help shed some light on acquaintance rape and the fact that so few know what to do about it and how to help.
