Booker Prize - Tumblr Posts

This was another of our fears: that Life wouldn't turn out to be like Literature.

– Julian Barnes, The Sense of an Ending

You know what you need to do? Pull up a great fanfiction and check out a Twilight book from the library. Have your mom read both.

See if she still thinks published books are always better.

My mother says that fanfiction doesn’t count as reading because “it isn’t nearly as good as the stuff that’s published. You’re not going to find something online that will win a Booker Prize.” Please reblog if you count fan fiction as reading, or if the fanfiction you’ve read is equally as good as published novels. I want to see the figures.
