I love this post, you have such a wonderful attitude and I’m really pleased that you’ve been able to reevaluate your life and your priorities to make yourself happy! I love your writing
The Hunger Games IS real literature! People really under-rate young adult fantasy fiction. It takes a creative mind, great plots and intriguing characters to make those stories come alive. Every book has a place in literature in my opinion no matter the type or genre…even Twilight
Yes, the writing was less than stellar, but it was geared towards teens and sometimes mindless romance and *crap is what we need
It’s always interesting what priorities in your life change over time. Great list
I applaud your wisdom & insights. It’s ok to change & for your priorities to change.
