!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

New York’s hottest club is…the Union Square Barnes & Noble on May 30th at 7 PM! Brought to you by Penguin Live, this event has EVERYTHING: Andrea Cremer, Sarah Dessen, Marie Lu, Richelle Mead, and Rick Yancey. It’s going to be the best time ever. We can’t wait!

I’m always proud of my work on the Penguin Teen Tumblr, but I think this post is the nadir so far. Missing this event because of another commitment that same night and feeling pretty bummed not to see all these cool authors in one place!

Anna is amazing and this event will be OFF THE HOOK.

Stefon would definitely approve.

Iron Man has defeated the Mandarin.

I tried to ignore this post but dammit, I just couldn’t do it.

Last night I went to go see Iron Man 3. FINALLY. About halfway through the film we were evacuated because a popcorn machine had caught fire. I’m just going to imagine that this is how it ends.

nprmusic:

With so many distractions and different ways to hear songs, it’s getting to be pretty impossible to give full albums the attention they deserve. When was the last time you actually listened to one all the way through, without any interruptions?

I have pretty old school listening habits. I listen to albums all the way through over and over. Especially when I’m prepping for a concert.

David Foster Wallace was like, Art must be sincere! We must use every tool in the linguistic toolbox to cut through sentiment and dishonest cliche and build fresh ways to reveal the power and reality of unironized emotion.

And Mister Rogers was like, Basically the same thing, but without any shame or pretense or fear of sincerity.

“If given the opportunity, meet your idols and gush like the village idiot. Some of them are still people and like to be reminded why their publicists dragged them to New York.”

I try to do this at every opportunity, BEA is one of them.

Angelina Jolie’s Surgery

Tue, 14 May 2013 12:50:57 -0400

newyorker:

Jolie’s medical decision says again what shouldn’t need re-saying: that a woman’s body is hers, that breasts are for something other than ogling, and that hard choices are made for strong reasons. Her decision to make her choice public is bold and brave and admirable. It is what celebrity is for.

—Rebecca Mead on Angelina Jolie’s decision to make her mastectomy public:

Having had friends who have gone through this elective surgery, some before they hit 30, it’s a relief to see this discussed by such a public figure. All the body issues that come up leading into and following the surgery…I can’t even imagine.
