morganville vampires, you will always have a soft spot in my heart.
unfortunately I do still love it and while it’s not the greatest piece of literature- I understand why 11 year old me felt it was

there is nothing like revisiting the person you used to be and the tastes you used to have! oh to see the world again with the wonder of a 14 year old with a library card.

Haven't read it since I was 11, so not sure if it holds up, but this book had a hold on my lil middle school heart. I re-read it so many times, my copy was tattered!
I remember also liking Island of the Blue Dolphins when we read that in school!

my absolute favorite book as a kid was trial by journal by kate kline, and as a tween it was the year of secret assignments, both of which are a combo of letters/emails/diary entries etc
I also liked speculative fiction/more grounded sci fi and fantasy:
-heir apparent by vivian vande velde, a vr middle school novel
-12 impossible things before breakfast by jane yolen, a series of creepy/fantastical short stories
-the true meaning of smekday by adam rex, a fun romp of an alien invasion novel from the perspective of a teenage girl
My number one rec is the book when you reach me by rebecca stead!! just a beautiful coming of age novel about friendship and love and also (unexpectedly) time travel. i haven’t reread most of the others in ages but I revisit this one every few years.
(Also possibly a controversial opinion, but if you never read twilight it might be worth it for the cultural experience lol)

I will not listen to instagram nutritionists or 20 year olds who read a handful of studies on Reddit dot com/pudmed. i WILL be listening to the people with years of science and experience

the internet needs less chaos and self serving agendas, no more arguing with blue check marks for rage bait and getting people paid who cannot stand 10 toes down on their beliefs. reverting back to writing out every single thought and belief I have inside a journal like its my mini manifesto
