Addictive. Page turning. Katniss is a badass, I read this in just 4 hours!! If you haven’t yet, do it.
I don’t like days after a night of long drinking. and I don’t like nights of drinking on an empty stomach. they make me emotional, irrational and unsure of myself. which is not who i am.
poke smot.

I just read this book in less than 24 hours. It’s a quick read because it is being narrated by a young boy, with an old soul. I thoroughly enjoyed it although, moments are depressing, disturbing and eye opening. Especially if you’ve come from a broken home and have siblings, all the more reason you may enjoy it. Not a “feel good” book by any means, but a definite must read.
Berenstain Bears co-creator Jan Berenstain dies
Jan Berenstain, who with her husband Stan created the Berenstain Bears books that have charmed preschoolers and their parents for 50 years, has died. She was 88.
Mike Berenstain says his mother suffered a severe stroke on Thursday and died Friday without regaining consciousness. She was a longtime resident of Solebury in southeastern Pennsylvania.
The Berestains’ gentle stories of Mama Bear, Papa Bear, Brother Bear and Sister Bear address childhood subjects like coping with new siblings, summer camp and peer pressure.
Stan and Jan Berenstain, both Philadelphia natives, were 18 when they met on their first day at art school in 1941. Stan Berenstain died in 2005.
The first Berenstain Bears book, “The Big Honey Hunt,” was published in 1962. More than 300 titles have been released in 23 languages.
