I want to believe.

But theirs would be true love. You know, the kind that happen after each main character has slogged through the obligatory series of bad relationships only to realize their One and Only was right there all along. Awwwww.

I'm shipping Ed and Taylor like crazy.

Franco's ego is so big it should have its own ZIP code.

I see your point and I did like the book, but I still think that John Green did a better job writing females in The Fault in Our Stars than he did in his other books (that I've read, at least). He is really good, but Meg Rosoff is a lot better at cross-writing (What I Was is incredible, and written entirely from the…

The Raven Cycle is her best work so far, although I haven't read the Lament series, but I've read the Shiver trilogy and The Scorpio Races. The latter is amazing. It's not a good YA book, it's a good book, end of story. Highly recommended.

I loved "Paper Towns". I just wasn't terribly happy that the main female character wasn't there for the best part of the book, which was the whole point, since otherwise the others wouldn't have gone looking for her and it would've been a very short and uninteresting story. But Margo is still little more than a…

He writes about what he knows, apparently.

John Green is good at writing girls (when he does, which isn't often: he obviously likes writing boys a lot better, and most of his other stuff is about boys pining for elusive Manic Pixie Dream Girls: Alaska Young, Margo Roth Spiegelman). But Maggie Stiefvater remains the best. She's really good at creating complex…

Because Hazel is a girl and she's grappling with the concepts of death and love and loss, and she's smart and the book is funny (very funny, in fact: most of it, anyway) and touching. Of course she relates.

As an Italian who was raised Catholic: yes, it is. At least, it is here, which is all that matters since Suor Cristina is Italian. In that context, the Lord's Prayer just sounded wrong, almost immodest. Also, in a country plagued by an obvious lack of separation between church and state that is making life hard for…

She's not bashed for being a politician, she's bashed for being a woman in politics. The kind of criticism she faces would hardly be aimed at a man.

Yet more comments to this article that bash Hillary Clinton for doing exactly what any other politician would do in similar circumstances. Particularly interesting are those who would like her better if she were a crunchier, bushy-tailed and bright-eyed version of herself, i.e. exactly the kind of traits that would…

"It's complicated."

Well, I have to say: it was completely out of context, unplanned, and awkward.

I'm 41 and most of this description fits me.

I was commenting the final on live radio last night and when she started saying the Lord's Prayer the whole studio froze. I don't know if anyone was watching us on livestream, but if they did, they were treated to me making approximately this face:

I love how Rihanna in this dress has turned half the world into Helen Lovejoy.

I'm pretty sure grabbing somebody's breast isn't a common friendly gesture even among close friends. Let alone with somebody you know so little you thought you saw her in the street, but really, you didn't.

The Fault in Our Stars is being marketed as the saddest film of all time when in fact the book is laugh-out-loud funny for about three quarters of the story, and it only turns devastating in the last quarter. But of course everyone will come prepared and as a consequence will be unmoved by the devastation that is the…
