Great mythological story

For anyone who enjoys mythology, thus is a great book. You get to know some of the gods and goddesses from Greek mythology. The only thing I found a little unbelievable was parts if the love story between Than and Therese, although it was lovely to read as a young girl fell in love with the Hod of death, I sometimes forgot that she was supposed to only be 15 as some of it was written as though she was an adult. I would give it 3.5 stars overall as it was a fun little read!

Yep, I seem to have an obsession with these now.

I enjoyed this one. This is my first non-Yaoi one, it just being a Young Adult romance-in-the-making between a girl and a boy she used to be close to before he disappeared from her life. He's now back, grown up, and with a new name. (I still don't quite understand how names and honorifics work but I'm sure the more I read, I'll work it out)

It's slow going but I like the artwork and the developing feelings between our characters. Off to start #2.

A thought provoking, dystopian world.

Our planet, inhabitable and dying. Population Zero pushes you to think about the future, about how our actions have consequences that reach far beyond our own front yard.
    It made me feel sad and had me thinking of how easily things can change.
     I'll be honest, none of the possible worlds described held any appeal at all. None of them hold hope of any type of survival but all of them get you to question your actions in the here and now.

An ideal young adult read to open up discussions about the future of our planet.
