What's that Genre: Dystopian
Some other great examples are Brave New World, The Giver, 1984, and Scythe. Typically these books are for older, teen audiences to adults because of their darker subject matter. Do you have a favorite dystopian novel? And what genre should I do next?

    I like some fantasy, but mostly the dark Tower I plan on getting into the Lord of the rings, but that’s about it when it comes to fantasy for me. I like some surrealist stuff like fight club, American psycho. I like horror. I’m reading the stand right now. Great Read. And I’m going to read all the other books for the dark Tower series. I do like a bit of western fiction kinda like fear and loathing in Las Vegas no country for old men and the gunslinger. I do like some old biblical epics like Paradise Lost. I’ve also read a bit of sci-fi. I’ve read same Star Wars novels. Biblical epics are very interesting to me. But my favorite style to write in would be a mix of non-fiction surrealism with a dash of horror.

    Unfortunately it doesn’t make sense for publishers to continue to use the outdated system as majority of countries these days classify adults as around 18. To shift it closer to 16-25 would make more sense for YA. Not everything is going to be the same definition but it does lend itself to confusion, especially when content of books become more mature for the same audience (18 still lends itself to adult themes, which is why I think more graphic writing gets lumped in (unclear if other criteria is established for YA other than reader age)).

    • @rloomisbooks
      @rloomisbooks 9 дней назад

      YA is also determined by age of the MC and the themes dealt with in the novel, such as identity, belonging, and first love.

    A lot of books that get marked as YA are books aimed at women that are clearly not YA, like ACOTAR. I don't even hear people claim that YA is for 25+ year olds, but they still put pretty obviously adult books in YA. This is just from a general observation standpoint, not publishing or marketing or anything official haha

    I had a friend who had a lot of issues, she would hate physical touch and people dosliked her for her blunt behavior but i stood by her side even when it was hard for me emotionally and im very physically affectionate so i would take small steps to make her comfortable with my touch , first holding her hand for like 4 seconds and then she became comfortable with my touch enough to give me a hug . Later i found out she was assulted physically and even her family can't touch ( they did vuvtim blaming making things worse) but she is only comfortable touching me. Whenever she went home she would start hating touch again but i would always start from 0 with her tho it was draining emotionally until she was okay with my touch completely. She thanked me to be the only one who never gave up on her no matter how she was and that i would always be her bestfriend.

But today i was with her, and it was my last time seing her In a couple mounths because i’m leaving for school where i’m going to live so i wont be able to see her for a long time. And she told me ‘I love you’ for the first time🫶 So that was something kind someone Else has done for me.

    On our way out from the store one day, I saw a car pulling out and something had fallen off the top of it. I decided to pull over and walked over to see what had fallen and realized it was a phone. I picked it up and drove slowly around the parking lot until I saw the car again and went up to it. I told the older man who got out that I had found this off the road from his car and he got teary eyed. Come to find out, not only was it his phone, but he was coming down to our state for a business trip and he had everything on his phone: his money, his information, and everything he needed for his trip and his work. He thanked me multiple times for what I did. If the situation came up again, I'd do it all the same.

    I have a lot of books but not enough space to keep them. My aunt likes books as well and when she saw the stacks of books on my floor because my bookshelf and the space in my bed headboard were full, she made it her mission to find me a new bookshelf. When she came over, she spent at least an hour looking at various types of shelves and going through prices, reviews, measurements, and more. She even ended up going to IKEA with my mom and I to show us what she found and when she realized it wouldn't fit in our car she kept trying to find ways to bring it. She even said she'd buy it just so I could get it (before the trip) because my mom kept forgetting to look at it even after all the times she reminded her.

    Don't change them to marmots :-D Marmots are quite different from opossums. Different behavior, lifestyle, area of living... I suppose the closest is raccoons. Those aren't native to Europe either, but they are an invasive species, like raccoon dogs... Foxes, squirrels, crow birds... rats could work, too. Depending on what you want the animals to do. But, very good tip :-D

    About a year ago, I was looking into joining the military, when I got to MEPS, I was incredibly nervous because I had never done nor experienced anything like it before. Plus, I had to be up at 3am which is earlier than I have ever woke up. It was incredibly stressful but, my mother and my siblings all stayed up until it was time for me to awaken, just to make sure I was awake on time and didn't mess anything up. My dad even took time out of his average fast-paced work schedule to give me a call. Because of them, the whole day went through like a breeze.
