Why the Great Outdoors is Detrimental to Your Health…

Whoever said fresh air was a good thing was totally misguided. Yes, of course, fresh air and the great outdoors is supposed to be awesome and all. Promotes a love a nature, gets people out and about, blah blah blah. But whoever said it failed to disclose the drawbacks. Fresh air can lead to momentary insanity in us City Girls.

Not that we’re like Carrie Bradshaw Clones or anything. You won’t find us trolling down Times Square rocking fabulous Manolos (though one can always dream).

Back to the point. On one sunny California day not to long ago, last weekend actually, we found ourselves hiking in the wilderness (of a well known and maintained trail). In a stroke of brilliance (and utter randomness) we decided that if we were a celebrity couple our name would be Ninja. For the first few letters in both our first names. We like to think it’s even awesomer than Bennifer. We might even have shirts made.

Flash forward to present time...

Some of that fresh air must still be trapped in our brains, because one of us (Ja) got the brilliant idea to start a book blog for all the YA lit we read. None of that deep "adult" stuff that makes you think crap and feel depressed for days. Nuh-uh, we like it light, and we like it FLUFFY. Hence, the voracious speed at which we kung-fu our way through beloved YA lit. Well, some of them are not so beloved since, given that it is written for teens that are uh...quite a few years younger than us, some of it is, quite frankly, to quote a particularly brilliant and eloquent individual, "sucky."

But we digress.

This book blog is a combination of our desire to better track books we’ve read, our thoughts on them, and our desire to simply use our Ninja moniker (this probably should’ve been listed first). We’ll try not to use too much Ninja-speak (example: “I digs!” and “Fun-ness!”) so that the masses can follow our reviews, but we make no guarantees. Because that's how we roll.

Enjoy!
