The Story of Emil Sinclair's Youth by Hermann Hesse I wanted only to try to live in accord with the promptings which came from my true self. Why was that so very difficult? DISCLAIMER: I do NOT own anything in here. This story is made by Hermann Hesse and he published it in the year 1919. Note: Sorry if some words do not have space. (ex. wehave= we have or Ihave= I have) This is because I did not directly type all these. I just copy pasted it from a PDF I have :)

Patrick Ness subverts tropes and genre stereotypes in his newest and endlessly clever book about what happens to those of us who aren't the "Chosen One" that so often dominates YA literature (and literature in general, for that matter). This YA Prize-shortlisted title tells the story of Mikey, whose friends are out saving the world from supernatural threats while he's just trying to make it to prom and manage his struggle with OCD.
