I am absolutely in love with the Lunar Chronicles, and funnily enough, it's the only series I've kept up with as it's been released. As I have mentioned before, I am...

Holden Caulfield is a seventeen year old drop out who has just been kicked out of his fourth school. Navigating his way through the challenges of growing up, Holden dissects the "phony" aspects of society, and the "phonies" themselves: the headmaster whose affability depends on the wealth of the parents, his roommate who scored with girls using sickly sweet affection. Now let me get this straight, I am not a person who rereads books but I have had the recent urge to reread this book for quite a while now. I personally don't see the point in rereading...

"Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open" Harry Potter is one of those series that inspired millions of children, and adults alike (and still does) for millions of reasons.
