For any of you who love any of the following things: <\/p>\n
One of my good friends, Corey, has started a site called Twin Pigeon<\/a>. I lived with Corey in my freshman year of Undergrad in KY and we spent a lot of time goofing around, eating wonderful college food and talking about music\/books\/movies. Corey is hilarious\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6there is really no other way to describe her in a nutshell. I am always thrilled when I see an email pop up in my inbox from her because it is full of goodness. She got me hooked on the Twilight<\/em> series, and I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not sure if I should thank or curse her for that. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s too late now though, so we just spend a lot of time making stupid jokes about how many times the word \u00e2\u20ac\u0153chagrin\u00e2\u20ac\u009d is used in the series. <\/p>\n In case you missed the subtle hints above, Corey is big into Young Adult fiction. I am not as well-versed as she is, but I love it! For me, between semesters in an English BA (followed by more semesters in an English MA) program, something like Twilight <\/em>is just what I needed. YA novels tend to suck you in like no other (except maybe Picoult?) and get you to love characters who have a good chance of being ridiculously annoying and will probably make horrible decisions repeatedly throughout the book. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s awesome. <\/p>\n Another wonderful thing to know about Corey: she had a KICKASS wedding\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6I was a super-helpful bridesmaid, dressed all in red. We marched up the aisles of the KY theater for a dark and wonderfully romantic ceremony on the stage with a delicious reception full of movie-themed goodies all around. Yet another reason she is great. Does this make you want to visit her new blog??? <\/p>\n ANYWAY, Twin Pigeon<\/a> is currently mostly about reviewing YA books\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just getting started, so send her some love\/suggestions\/harsh criticism\/knee-slapping jokes about vampires\/whatever. BUT to start things off on a blogger-friendly note, Corey is giving away a book! A FREE BOOK<\/a>! This one is a brand new, hardback, just released, fresh off the presses, exciting work of literary wonderment.
