I know that some may quibble at my use of the word "novel" to descibe the book, but, I really do think it fits: the OED defines the novel as: "a fictitious prose narrative of book length" It's fictitious, it's prose (even the song lyrics), there's some semblance of narrative, and, like I said, it's almost as long as the first Harry Potter book, so, by the standards of the Oxford English Dictionary, it is, technically, a novel.
No, no, don't get me wrong, your guy beats mine by far! It's that people who read it and like it, think that they are suddenly more sophisticated somehow for doing so. It's almost like subscribing Cosmo and saying that you are an avid reader. [/angry rant by girl, who spent as much time as she could in the library since she was four]
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
