 So I finished reading the new books Dad bought for the family library and now I'm bored...  Dad's agreed to let me buy more but Mom made him promise I have to get some... novels. What's wrong with enjoying reading about science and magic anyway?

Yeah... So could anyone suggest me some books that might be fun to read?

You make it sound like all novels are bad teen books.

Probably because Mom's tried forcing Twilight on me while yelling, "Read more novels!"

Go to a muggle book store and stay clear of the kiddie corner and you'll find something good.

[greenmoonrising]

Yes ma'am.

Some time later

Remind me never to do that again, professor. The majority of the 'young adult' section was made up of romance novels involving werewolves or vampires or some obscure form of fae.

I think I need an adult. Help.

Yes, that sounds accurate. Alright, don't trust a best sellers list. People will buy anything that everyone else buys. You're smarter than a cliff jumper. You need to look at classic literature, those are novels but they aren't as silly as what there is today.

Don't take anything from Professor Strider.

[greenmoonrising]

Alright, I'll try again...

I don't think I'd trust Professor Strider with my dog.

If you still can't find anything, I can have some books sent over.

[greenmoonrising]

Oh no, really it's fine, I'm sure I'll find something. Eventually.

Thank you ma'am. :)
