Why can't it be your country or home or city safe. 7 billion people are a little to much responsibility for.

She was homeschooled because it was basically their only option, but she's normal and well-rounded.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17561861156323120664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746441555766369349.post-3271294209821649692013-12-21T19:30:58.649-05:002013-12-21T19:30:58.649-05:00Haha, yup, I've read (and enjoyed) Being Sloan...Haha, yup, I've read (and enjoyed) Being Sloane Jacobs.

Now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever read a book with a home-schooled character that's not some fantasy/historical novel where that might be more common. Good point!

I loved being homeschooled and I agree, I would love to see more of it in YA. I was reading your point about more unique setting and Canada and was like, oh I'll tell her about Being Sloane Jacobs and then I scrolled down and was all, jk, she's already on it. I really enjoyed that book and loved hearing the descriptions of Montreal with the underground tunnels and different artworks and such. And definitely more good friendships! Like Perry and Roar! Or Sloane and Sloane! I loved their friendship. Great discussion!

It's like hello, hi, yeah NO. Not every single guy who's friends with a girl is in love with her. Can't they just have it where the guy and the girl are best friends. Just best friends?Ravenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07604916266542480665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746441555766369349.post-44087376943451607932013-12-21T08:23:38.632-05:002013-12-21T08:23:38.632-05:00I agree.
