- The Cybils have been announced and The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks by E. Lockhart won in the YA category. I am ecstatic but also wary because I no longer trust the book blogger community not to couch any negative reviews of the title in sexist language and sexist terms because so many bloggers who are well-respected and liked have done so, some of which I interact with. It’s hard telling people you respect they’re being sexist! E. Lockhart, I love your book, but I do not love some of the response to it. I want to protect it and I can’t, which is something touched on in the book itself. :( The win is bittersweet.
- Bloggers new to my reader: yaReads.com. I will soon be unlazy and add a bunch of new blogs in my reader to my website. *lazy*
- Award winner calls: an awesome video where the ALA calls the winners of all the awards. Some authors need to update their numbers, perhaps. :D
- The Twilight Ninja! Oh, god, I ROLLED. Twilight fandom, never stop bringing the crack.
- When Urine Love and other hilarious plushies.
- Some reviews I’ve bookmarked:
I missed Valentine’s Day for the most part because I was busy hermiting. Here, have this extremely awesome fanvid over the movie Formula 17 about a young man who goes into the city and falls in love with the local playboy and seduces him with the power of innocence. Bonus friendship side story! Also, it’s romantic and cheers me up whenever I’m feeling down. Hearts.
