I need a really good book to read. I'm 17 and have read many books about teens and drama (drugs, sex, pretty much everything) some of my favorites are The Perks of Being a Wallflower and all books written by Augusten Burroughs, James Frey etc. I like really extreme stuff.

I read constantly in 9th and 10th grade but didn't pick up a book in 11th grade at all. I'm a new senior in high school and I really want to get into the habit again. Suggestions? I want a book I don't want to put down.

To quote one of my favorite authors, Stephen King, "I'm talking about the one that got under you like a magic carpet and lifted you right off the ground".

Is it any good? And how is it put together? Is it a story, or a documentary of sorts? I heard about it, and went to Barnes & Noble to buy it, but I read a bit of it, and it just looked like an interveiw.

Thanks in advance.

Hey All My “Yahooligan” Friends *^_^*


I have a problem and I’m hoping for some wonderful feedback from you all. Not only will this help me but, others also in my position.
First off, I’d like to say “Thank You” all for your support in “criticizing” as well as “commenting” on my works. I truly have never even considered doing a book until after I jumped on Y.A. and had the pleasure of meeting you all. You are a true inspiration to me and again, I thank you.
Secondly, I am truly amazed at the wonderful comments posted in “poetry’ form. There are so many of you that deserve much praise also and should consider getting a book out *^_^* I will try much harder in returning more of the favors in commenting, promise :~)`

Ok, here’s the thing. I have come across a wonderful site called “Barros Monteiro Editorial Publishers
“ They publish Poetry, Prose and Short Stories. I’m seriously considering jumping on in but, I feel that I have so many different “subject matters”

Why did God create us? The answer that the bible seems to provide is: for His pleasure (Revelation 4:11) (Colossians 1:16)

According to Matthew's Gospel, the very essence of the Law and the Prophets is to love God and to love others (Matthew 7:12), so loving God is essential to being a Christian.

There are so many of us who use the freedom of choice that He knew, being the omnipotent being He is (Matthew 19:26), would lead us to choose a path that excluded Him. He knows and says that many of us will go to Hell and few will make it to Heaven (Matt.7:13-14) How can I love someone that says He Loves me, but has chosen not to allow me to live forever with Him in Heaven, but has created an environment where I can possibly go to hell? Why doesn’t God just bypass the suffering and create our soul with him in heaven where of course there is only joy?

How can I love someone who has made me and placed me here to struggle and suffer through life for His pleasure?

"Eye of the Beholder"

You find a heart's passion
and have a heart's pain.
You sample sweet freedom
and now all is chained.

The Garden of Eden
a hellish abyss.
And Angels of Heaven
a Demon's death kiss.

In darkness a light,
at noon, a shadow.
First, a new life.
Last, only gallows.

Ok, I just finished a great book, called Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin, and I found another book written by her, Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac, and I just can't get interested. Does anyone know of a fiction book worth reading?

Can someone who's read World War Z tell me of some reveiws?

A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.

Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.

And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keep us strong
In a special world, where we belong.

I'm a university student, in a university with a sort of lackluster theatre program. I took over a club on campus that is for theatre, but I have no idea what I'm doing and the previous leader of the group is already long gone, as are many of the original members. And please bear in mind that I'm working with absolutely nothing. I mean, I have a few interested students that seem dedicated... but I have no money, and sort of limited resources myself.

Also, if you know of any improv games to use in rehearsals, I'd love to know about that. I know a few, but there are some that I don't remember.
