I started Full Ride but I found the story childish? It also made me so anxious about college applications even though I did those long ago

lol I'm having fun redesigning them to fit the states. My favorite is how I redid the Starfish cover completely. I'm also thinking of writing the names of the states instead of the book titles, but in the same fonts.

I need help with Nevada, Texas, Rhode Island, Arizona, Ohio, and the Dakotas at the moment, but I'm trying to do books I've read so it makes it kind of hard!"
Same! I only want to books that are meaningful to me or the location.

Texas: Lucky Few or Splintered

Nevada: Overturned or Welcome to the Slipstream or All In

Ohio: Mosquitoland

Haha of course! I am not at all a writer tho... I don’t think I’ve ever completed a story

That’s a good way to put it

So I heard someone say that the only difference between Middle Grade, Young Adult, and Adult fiction is the age of the characters, and I completely disagree. What do y’all think?

Haha me neither. Sometimes ur lucky and it says setting in the goodreads book info

Hawaii - the girl from everywhere
California - Alex approximately

@em I definitely want to see it when u do!

I’m doing this art thing where I fill in a United States map with a young adult book that takes place in each state. So i thought it might be fun to make it a game to see if we can name a book for every state (or country 👀)
