THIS POST IS RECOMMENDED

This blog is all about literature. Whether it'd be books, movies or TV shows. You may have come to this site to expect some type of recommendation source. Well, I'm going to give the people just that in this post. Here is my list of literary recommendations.

Carrie, by Stephen King (and both the movies)

If you are unpopular at school, and want to take a stand to your social status on the school's Caste System, Carrie would be a good guide. As Stephen King's debutant novel, the horror book tells a tale of the High School Glory Days, and a dorky girl's discovery of an amazing power she acquires. She uses it to avenge her enemies at school and her extremely religious, almost insane mother, in a very sinister way. It is a very suspenseful, yet above all relatable read.

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

This one makes you think a little bit. It tells the story of Guy Montag, who lives in a dystopian society as a book burner. In his society, books are illegal, and must be burned down along with the buildings they reside in. However, Montag smuggles a couple of books here and there from the sites. His wife discovers, and soon the whole city knows. He then declares war against the Status Quo who believe that books are the source of some evils, and the outgoing who like to read, like you guys!

The Harry Potter Series by J.K. Rowling

Yes, we've all seen this one. The famous fantasy series has recently come completely to a close, with the last movie adaptation being released a couple years ago. So here's the plot. A boy who witnesses the death of his parents by the dark wizard Lord Voldemort who was out to defeat the DA (Dumbledore's Army). In revenge, Harry sets out to try to defeat Voldemort as vengeance and at the same time, deals with school drama at Hogwart's. Good book for a kid.

So those are my recommendations as far as literature goes. G'night!
