A thing I love about Austen's work is how immensely quotable it is. All you need to do is open up one of her books and you'll soon enough find a quote to your liking!

Light green flowered background. There are two lines of medium green curlycues at the top and bottom of the image. The text reads, "And your defect is a propensity to hate everybody." "And yours, he replied, with a smile, "is wilfully to misunderstand them." Below the bottom two golden yellow lines, it says, "Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen"

As a society, we need to stop pretending that YA is a decent genre when it's the literary equivalent of a marvel movie.

"Cutter's Deep" is my personal favorite but if you like creepy and unsettling horror, you really can't go wrong with any book or story from Ronald McGillvray. As far as I'm concerned, this is an empirical fact. 📚🙂👍
