Fairytales aren't real

@perfectfiresky

Happy endings don't exist. No prince charming will sweep you off your feet. A kiss won't save your life. You survive by living in the moment, going through each obstacle with perseverance. You survive by staying strong even when life seems bleak. You survive by facing every dead-end with a ready smile and the willingness to vault over the wall.

Friendly reminder that Israel isn't a country, it's an occupying force that occupies & bombs Palestine and Syria and is kept alive on the military & financial aid from Western countries, mainly USA & UK and due to some spineless Arab countries & its leaders who would rather sell their souls than free the oppressed.

we need more books that are written like YA novels but have characters in their 20s… like I can’t keep reading books about teenagers but I’m also not ready for the weird adult romance section of the book store

Also adventure/fantasy books with main characters in their 20s because I don't wanna keep putting myself in the shoes of a 12-year-old just to feel the rush of entering a new world or the adrenaline of battling dragons and flying on broomsticks.
