YA Books

Happy Friday, Nerdfighters! (sorry, I was watching FlawedArtist before). I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving yesterday or a wonderful Thursday if your not in America. But back to what's important, books. A couple of weeks ago I started requesting Young Adult book reviews from fellow Nerdfighters and a couple of you complied. Before I get into those reviews let me just mention that the next Nerdfighter reviews will be for Science Fiction books (not Fantasy, that will probably come later… Continue

Hank in FAMY



This Machine Pwns n00bs (and re-released shirts) available at http://dftba.com/shop/categories/Music/Hank-Green/



In which John discusses Hank's impending punishment in the context of Thierry Henry's hand ball in the lead-up to a goal in Ireland and France's World Cup Qualifier. (I am not a die-hard Ireland supporter or anything; I just like fair play.) The "Are the new viewers gone yet" is… Continue

Twilight Is Not Alone

First things first, have you read a good Young Adult Fiction book lately? If you said yes, write a review (about a paragraph... nothing to long) and send it to; drowninginflowers@gmail.com and then I'll compile a blog post with a bunch of nerdfighter reviews. This way you get a variety of opinions and not just my extremely biased opinion.



Also, the blurbing book club is still reading, "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" by Ken Kesey until the end of November. Make sure to read,… Continue

Nerdfighter Books

Before I get started with the introduction to nerdfighter books that the title promises I'd like to thank, Wonder Woman 2.0, for presenting the idea for this style post. Now, on to the reviews!



Since this is the first time I've done honest-to-blog reviews I figured what better way to start then with some Nerdfightastic books. Not John's of course, because I'm pretty sure you have either read, or heard of and are planning to read, or currently reading, or have opted not to read John's… Continue
