 Posts from bloggers that I loved this week: 

Since banned books week is coming up, the girls over at Such A Novel Idea wrote a really cool post about it. In this particular post, the girls all share a quote from a banned book that means something to them. 

The Araliya Bookshelf talks about review writing and also shares some tips that I found really helpful! 

Maria at The Teen Book Nerd discusses why people lose their love of reading as they get older. I found this to be a fascinating topic to take on and I found her gifs to be hilarious and fitting. 

I haven't read the book The Rest Of Us Just Live Here, but I still totally related to what The Quiet People had to say about having too much content. I've read so many YA books where the main character just had problem after problem. Sometimes it can be overwhelming how much drama is stuffed into just one story. 

Lisa and Becca at Lost In Lit had a fabulous debate about fictional boyfriends. As a lover of fictional boyfriends myself, I loved everything that they had to say. I'm not married or anything, but as a 19 year old girl, it can be easy to get so wrapped up in these fictional boyfriends and expect every guy to be like them. While I would love to meet a guy like Jonah Griggs or Cam Hamilton, I know that they aren't real. Every guy is different and I think the guys we meet in real life can be just as great. I definitely agree with the lowering your expectations thing. Anyway, I really loved this! They both brought up interesting points to add to this discussion.
