American Idiot The Musical – St. Davey/Van/Justin Review

American Idiot is a different play to what it was a week ago, there is no point denying that. It’s a different vibe, it carries a different meaning and leaves you feeling a different way. But that isn’t a bad thing.

Why the World Needs Wonder Woman

Why the World Needs Wonder Woman

It seems like more and more we are encouraging the world not to ask questions. Especially young women. Don’t look at things that you think are wrong and question them, try to change them, instead just think about things that will make you happy. Don’t fight. Don’t rebel. Don’t THINK.

Mark Reads 'New Moon': Chapter 14

Mark Reads ‘New Moon’: Chapter 14

In the fourteenth chapter of New Moon, Stephenie Meyer reaches new literary heights by writing pages and pages of exposition for what appears to be a really bad porn. Or slashfic. Something like that. But seriously, there are half naked boys in a forest wrestling while other half naked boys bet on which one will bleed and then there are half naked boys who make a Bella sandwich in her car and…no, it’s really bad. Really really bad.


Mark Reads 'New Moon': Chapter 13

Mark Reads ‘New Moon’: Chapter 13

In the thirteenth chapter of New Moon, Bella stalks Jacob at his house and no one calls her on it, not even Jacob’s dad. Then she walks in on Jacob sleeping. Seriously. This (THANKFULLY) leads to Jacob and Bella having a conversation about how he is a werewolf, even though we’ve known this since THE LAST BOOK. At this point, we learn that Jacob can read werewolf minds and the book reverts back to the exact same plot as Twilight. Intrigued? Then it’s time for Mark to read New Moon.

Mark Reads ‘New Moon’: Chapter 12

In the twelfth chapter of New Moon, we learn the scratching outside Bella’s bedroom window is Jacob. Climbing a tree. He apologizes profusely to Bella and says he’d like to tell her why he was acting so weird. Only he can’t, so he forces Bella to guess. For real. Then Meyer writes what is essentially a literary flashback monologue and brain cells start melting and then the book just plummets to the absolute bottom of the barrel. All hope is lost. Intrigued? Then it’s time for Mark to read New Moon.

Mark Reads 'New Moon': Chapter 11

Mark Reads ‘New Moon’: Chapter 11

In the eleventh chapter of New Moon, Bella spends pages merely calling Jacob over and over again, at one point calling every 30 minutes for an entire evening. She finally gives up stalking him over the phone and drives to his house, confronting Jacob’s friend Quil, who magically validates all of Bella’s stalking.

Mark Reads 'New Moon': Chapter 10

Mark Reads ‘New Moon’: Chapter 10

In the tenth chapter of New Moon, Bella spends far too much time openly stalking Jacob because it’s clear at this point that she’s not a normal human being. This leads her to return to her usual mopey self, so she decides the best thing to do is revisit the meadow from Twilight where Edward revealed his glittery powers to her. There’s no Edward, but Laurent shows up, tries to eat her, and a ton of werewolves show up, including Jacob. It is just as dumb as it sounds. Intrigued? Then it’s time for Mark to read New Moon.

Mark Reads 'New Moon': Chapter 9

Mark Reads ‘New Moon’: Chapter 9

In the ninth chapter of New Moon, Meyer spends far two much time on banal plot points that seem to go nowhere until, ONCE AGAIN, she uses Jacob to foreshadow his own transformation into a werewolf. Before the reader gouges his or her eyes out, however…

In the eighth chapter of New Moon, Jacob and Bella hang out more; twice, Bella ends up in the hospital because of this. But we learn an even more disturbing fact about our least favorite heroine…

In the seventh chapter of New Moon, Jacob proves to be even more ADORABLE and AMAZING than a single fiber on Edward Cullen’s blazer.


Mark Reads 'New Moon': Chapter 6

Mark Reads ‘New Moon’: Chapter 6

In the sixth chapter of New Moon, Bella and Jacob’s friendship grows as the two (mostly Jacob) work on the set of motorcycles Bella picked up. Bella stops moping, for once, though her penchant for sexism and irritating gloom-and-doom is still present. Bella might actually be happy for once, werewolves are disgustingly foreshadowed, and we deal with possible Mormon propaganda. Intrigued? Then it’s time for Mark to read New Moon.

Mark Reads 'New Moon': Chapter 5

Mark Reads ‘New Moon’: Chapter 5

In the fifth chapter of New Moon, Bella mopes at work, mopes on her way home from work, and eventually pulls off to the side of the road to CONTINUE MOPING. In a moment of inspired bliss, Meyer finally decides she’s had enough of her irritating attitude, so Bella buys two motorcycles (no, really) and goes to hang out with Jacob Black. And, for the first time, ever, a book by Stephenie Meyer is actually kind of awesome. Intrigued? Then it’s time for Mark to read New Moon.
