The last movie I watched was Beauty and the Beast. It's a Disney classic. I caved and got it off Amazon when I found it on DVD (I'm pretty sure it's in the Disney Vault.) If it's not it may as well be it's so darn hard to find. It was awesome, just how I remembered it. :)
[link] (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001K9JVWI/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_img?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1JZ9YT455ZCAF&coliid=I3VZD45AUBFEC2) This book looks awesome. I've seen the movie and I feel like I should have read the book first.
Third Thing
Yay cocktails!
I highly recommend ROTTERS by Daniel Kraus. It's billed as a YA book, but I've never read something this subversive, disgusting, and counter-cultural before. Or at least not in a long time. It takes every YA trope and vomits all over each of them, telling the story of an orphaned boy who reunites with his estranged father. The two of them aren't getting along until they bond over a shared loved of grave-robbing and corpse-mutilation. To be honest, I'm surprised it's allowed in libraries.
Also, Reddit's very own Dathan Auerbach wrote PENPALS which was really great (you can read it on r/nosleep, which is the version I prefer) and had it published last year. I think it's the best horror novel of 2012.
October Dreams: A Celebration of Halloween, and The Halloween Tree are two must-reads this season. My girlfriend recently stumbled upon something called Gods of The Nowhere: A Novel of Halloween, too, and it sounds awesome, but I haven't acquired it yet, so I can't say anything definite about it. Last, but not least, if you like graphic novels, there's always I Luv Halloween. Disclaimer: You have to be a fan of dark comedy to fully enjoy that last one.
Awesome - I was going to ask too, glad someone beat me to it! Totally going to check this out :)
EDIT - I think this is the one based on the description. https://www.amazon.com/Bruiser-Neal-Shusterman-ebook/dp/B003M69DCA
A really fascinating book I read when I was 11 was William Sleator's House of Stairs. http://www.amazon.com/House-Stairs-William-Sleator/dp/0140345809
It is considered YA, but I think it tackles some pretty intense concepts. contemporary analogs would probably be The Giver.
Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock is often considered a 'school shooting' story and got widespread positive reviews.
Also, not a book, but the Foster The People song Pumped Up Kicks is a recently popular song that is centered around a kid daydreaming about shooting people.
It's YA Lit but Challenger Deep is fantastic.
The movie for this book was filmed in my city. I'd like to read it before I see the movie!
My all time favorite book is The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky. I read it for the first time near the end of middle school. We all know how awkward middle school is. The book just really stuck with me, and to this day, it is still my favorite book. I've lost count of how many times I have read it.
I did a quick search; this one looks promising!
http://www.amazon.com/Black-Book-Diary-Teenage-Stud-ebook/dp/B000FC10UM/ref=la_B001KCVWD6_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1405149157&sr=1-1
Dude, if you are in middle school, I hope I’m not corrupting you. Try Spanking Shakespeare by Jake Wisner.
Edit: Here’s a link
I start reading books in September and then transition to watching more movies in October. This month I've read A Natural History of Hell and The Hellbound Heart. Last year I went through the entire Hannibal series and Scary Stories to tell in the dark. BUT every year, right before Halloween, I read The Halloween Tree. I still need one or two more book to get me through the month!
The book is Border Crossing by Jessica Lee Anderson in case you're curious.
House of Stairs
I doubt it's what you're looking for, although it's an excellent recommendation.
Dork Diaries?
http://www.amazon.com/Dork-Diaries-Tales-Not-So-Fabulous-Life/dp/1416980067
Although your cover description sounds more like Jonah Black's books, but those are about a teen boy:
http://www.amazon.com/The-Black-Book-Diary-Teenage/dp/0064407985
I'm not quite willing to take the author of this article at her word that the book is nothing more than smut. I've seen other books treated this way, where folks call for protests and challenges on any YA lit where teenagers acknowledge the existence of sex or drugs. (My own take on that particular controversy is here.)
I also wonder how much all the veiled accusations of the author being a perv are due to him being a male. I don't remember folks talking about how they needed to keep Judy Blume (the person, not her books) away from their kids.
That said, this doesn't seem to be a particularly good book. I've seen the author's other book, Spanking Shakespeare, at the bookstore before, but the only thing it really had going for it was that it had a little more appeal to young men than most of the books in its genre.
House of Stairs
Yup, House of Stairs by William Sleator
http://www.amazon.com/Border-Crossing-Jessica-Lee-Anderson/dp/1571316892
[You can make up for this by buying the sequel.] (http://www.amazon.ca/Taming-Wild-Woody-Chronicles/dp/1468127179/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1372210370&sr=1-7)
The Rock and the River by Kekla Magoon.
https://www.amazon.com/Boy-Edge-Fridrik-Erlings/dp/0763666807
Maybe William Sleator's House of Stairs?
Dd d t rght? D:
N vwls ths Hllwn!
Is it House of Stairs by William Sleator?
http://www.amazon.com/House-Stairs-William-Sleator/dp/0140345809/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1278450763&sr=1-1
The Last Treasure?
not siblings though - a boy and his female cousin
Could it be either of these books: Wise Young Fool or Give Me Some Truth?
There are no bad or good days. Just days. Did your dog just die? Still another day. Events happen, many outside of our control. Assigning the arbitrary day they happened a meaning is pointless. It's really hard for us not to though.
I remember watching a TV show where they locked a bunch of people in a room and they had to escape. There were all sorts of little things they had to try to escape. The only thing keeping them there was time. But they started to assign meaningless reason to their actions. When they finally escaped they all thought they had done something, but in reality the timer on the clock ran out.
This is what you're doing. A timer on a clock ran out, something happened, you prescribe it happened because you were wearing or doing x.
I also highly recommend reading this book - http://www.amazon.com/House-Stairs-William-Sleator/dp/0140345809
Take the time to consider the wider implications and what it would mean for you.
Like I want anything from YOU.
All I do is curl up next to my puppies and read books all day long. You'd only be fueling my bad reading habits and keeping me holed up at home.
It might be Althea & Oliver, by Cristina Moracho.
The blurb on the top of the book says "Althea can't stop falling in love. Oliver can't stop falling asleep"
> Althea Carter and Oliver McKinley have been best friends since they were six. Now, as their junior year of high school comes to a close, Althea has begun to want something more. Oliver simply wants life to go back to normal, but when he wakes up one morning with no memory of the past three weeks, he can’t deny any longer that something is seriously wrong with him. Then Althea makes the worst decision ever, and her relationship with Oliver is shattered. When he leaves town for a clinical study in New York, she drives up the coast after him, determined to make up for what she’s done.
