My diary desu.
>>24769810>AnimorphsHow the fuck was this ever allowed in elementary schools?>Haha funny covers of kids becoming animalsInside>Struggles with PTSD and fighting a cold war with life or death stakes
>>24769903People had a thicker skin in the past. Now the world is pussyfied.
>>24769903Why did the artist make Jake look like such a bitch in this image?
>>24769903Doesn't sound particularly edgy or kid unfriendly.
>>24769810Fuck it, Skulduggery Pleasant is kino.
>>24769810>critiques algorithms dominating every aspect of human interaction and consumption>presents the MC as special because she actually has an internal monologue, everyone else suppresses it because it's a sign of mental illness>plot point about the government using a vaccine to poison the populationit's like if /pol/ wrote a young adult romance novel with a self-insert female protagonist
>>24769810I read the Percy Jackson books in elementary school and some of the sequel series, but stopped partway throughIs there any point in the story where Percy becomes a cool power fantasy adult?
>>24769903The mind control slug one bothered me as a kid.
The Giver is a pretty great sci-fi dystopia.
The Cherub series.

>>24769810>Percy Jackson>First thing I hear about it is "it's some Harry Potter knock-off">Watch the movie>Not at good adaption it seems>Anyhow...>Percy lives with mom and mom's new husband who is an ass to him>Percy finds out his real dad (who's somewhere else doing important shit) is from a race of giants that used to be worshiped as gods>Percy's friend turns out to be a mythical creature>Percy ends up joining some boy scout type camp for demi-god teens>Mom gets "killed" by a big bull monster, Percy manages to kill the monster in return>learns to use some magic weapons there>goes off on a road trip to save mom from Hades>How is this a Harry Potter knock-off again?Percy isn't an orphan, that alone makes him a thousand times more original than Potter. I also cannot think of many Greek Fantasy Camp type of settings, meanwhile Howarts is literally just co-ed version of the school from The Worst Witch.

>>24769903I never finished this series as a kid, I'm told it went to shit a bit by the end.
>>24774391The author threw a hissyfit about people not liking her ending and manchildren defend it because it shows "the horrors of war" or some emo shit like that.
Any Michael Vey appreciators around here?
