If you're looking for an awesome book to curl up with this winter, check out these awesome ones:

1. The Selection

This isn't going to be a save the best for the last type of list, so I put this one first. The selection is one of my favorite series and is written by Kiera Cass. It is about a 17-year-old girl, America Singer, who lives in the future and ends up being put in a competition to win the prince's love despite having a boyfriend. It is a six book series including an extra book between America's story and her daughters.


2. Chasing Vermeer

This is another really good book, especially for those who love mysteries. It's about two kids who join forces to solve the mystery of a stolen painting and help a friend in the process. I know this sounds lame, but it is honestly really good and very interesting because it involves a lot of mind puzzles. There are three books in this series and they each have a different mystery.


3. Twilight

These books have a really bad reputation because of the movies, but they are really good. I enjoyed all of them and found that Belle was such a better main character in the books than in the movies considering she was played by Kristen Stewart. The rest of the movie cast was so amazing and really represented the parts great.


4. The Perks Of Being a Wallflower

This book is my favorite book that isn't apart of a series. I love it because it's really short but it still manages to leave a mark on you. It makes you really think about your life and puts everything in perspective. This follows Charlie throughout his freshman year and you watch him deal with family issues, making friends and keeping them around.

5. Ransom

This is another short book, but a really great one. It's about these five kids who get kidnapped by the substitute bus driver and have to figure out how they are going to make it out alive. This one is a little on the darker side, but I really enjoyed it.


6. All American Girl

All American Girl is about a girl who somehow ends up saving the president from an assassination attempt. I know this one sounds really unrealistic, which it is, but the way the book is written makes it seem like it could happen to anyone.


7. The Sister Grimm

I read this nine book series when I was in fifth grade and fell in love with it. The reading level is a little bit lower than you're probably used to, but it's still really good. It follows Sabrina Grimm, a descendant of the brothers Grimm, on her journey of protecting her sister, finding her parents, and saving the world. *This book contains magic!!!*


8. The Land of Stories

This is another series that involves magic. It follows twins Alex and Connor on their journey through the fairy tale world as they try to find their way back to the real world. This series has some pretty good plot twists and has some pretty big topics like dealing with the loss of a parent.

9. Elle Enchanted

This book is way better than the Disney movie with Anne Hathaway and is also almost a completely different story. The book has way more character development and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is another short one so it isn't that much of a hassle to read.


10. Of Mice and Men

I had to read this book for school and ended up really liking it. It tells the story of Lenny and George, two traveling farm workers, as they try to reach their dream of owning a farm that has bunnies. This book might be the shortest on my list, but I had to include it.

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.

Winter break is over, we're all back at our respective colleges, and the first week of classes is underway. This is a little bit how that week tends to go.

The professor starts to go over something more than the syllabus

You get homework assigned on the first day of class

There are multiple group projects on the syllabus

You learn attendance is mandatory and will be taken every class

Professor starts chatting about their personal life and what inspired them to teach this class

Participation is mandatory and you have to play "icebreaker games"

Everybody is going out because its 'syllabus week' but you're laying in bed watching Grey's Anatomy

Looking outside anytime past 8 PM every night of this week

Nobody actually has any idea what's happening this entire week

Syllabus week is over and you realize you actually have to try now...or not

Now it's time to get back into the REAL swing of things. Second semester is really here and we all have to deal with it.

Whether you specialized in ringing people up or preparing the food, if you worked at Panera Bread it holds a special place in your heart. Here are some signs that you worked at Panera in high school.

1. You own so many pairs of khaki pants you don’t even know what to do with them

Definitely the worst part about working at Panera was the uniform and having someone cute come in. Please don’t look at me in my hat.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
