If I wouldn't have read it, then I wouldn't have read more YA- exactly as you said! :)Becca F (ReadingTeen)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05525521098666776857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155706562190480177.post-25988693002559570752014-06-02T19:32:23.170-05:002014-06-02T19:32:23.170-05:00I think I started reading YA because I felt like t...I think I started reading YA because I felt like the most interesting genre choices were happening in YA vs. A. There's always this great sense of accomplishment that comes from finishing a book and it's a lot easier to get that from a YA book. ;) Great post! Very insightful! <br />deckfullojokershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12839786622980668609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155706562190480177.post-66108766437293633772014-06-02T19:31:37.208-05:002014-06-02T19:31:37.208-05:00I'm sorry to hear all this, Becca!

I myself was never bullied, so I cannot imagine what you went through.<br /><br />As for me, what got me started on YA was also Twilight! Why? Umm, IDK. One day I was in the library at the HS and was like, "Oh, this book sounds interesting." And then I thought, if I loved this series, imagine all the other amazing books that there are out there! Kind of a boring story, but they're you have it :) Lilianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10943616728668795725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155706562190480177.post-90760530726585146292014-06-02T19:28:47.341-05:002014-06-02T19:28:47.341-05:00Oigh Becca!

I'm so so so sorry that you had to go through such a horrible experience! <br />I just cannot understand why some people must make others feel bad that way! It's beyond me how people feel like they can just threaten people and make them feel awful because they feel they deserve it. Don't they think how they'd feel if it was them the ones being bullied?<br />But I'm very happy to hear books did help to save your life, so to speak! Books have always been my best friends, and they continue to do so now, when I'm going through a pretty horrible time with my break up... <br />What I always say... Forget about diamonds, books are a girl's best friend!! ;)<br />*big hugs for you* Pilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05235628363081574896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155706562190480177.post-64813148859421206992014-06-02T19:28:03.722-05:002014-06-02T19:28:03.722-05:00That sounds horrific Becca.

Although mine was far smaller, and people didn't really say things to my face. I did overhear them once though calling me names. Anyway, I'm way past that now too. Also, you're not that old because that would mean I'm old. I used MySpace too a long time ago. Haha<br /><br />I'm not really sure how I got into reading YA, but I do know why I've been reading YA for years. It serves as an escape. It's a means of relaxing and unwinding. It challenges me to think, teaches me about life, and makes me a better person. It shows me things I wouldn't have known about if I hadn't started reading. I guess it's not just YA, though it's a definite preference, but reading in itself means a lot to me. :) Francine Soleilhttps://plus.google.com/+FrancineSoleilnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-155706562190480177.post-17961752087743847072014-06-02T19:27:04.074-05:002014-06-02T19:27:04.074-05:00Thank you so much for sharing your experience!

Don't ever feel bad about Twilight, it has helped us all to escape things that we didn't want to have to deal with. And it has brought so many people to YA who wouldn't otherwise be here. <3 Andye ReadingTeenhttps://plus.google.com/115735418741762060770noreply@blogger.com
