Let me tell you about a thing. Gather ’round. Gather ’round. If you’re ever feeling like your day is circling the drain, I might have a solution for you. YouTube is filled with many wondrous (and not so wondrous) things, but above all those wondrous things reigns Mark Miller and Ethan Hethcote, or Methan, as many people (including myself) like to call them.
I discovered Methan sometime last year. Please don’t ask me how; it was probably in a YouTube spiral where I spend three hours clicking random videos on the sidebar. However I found them, you better believe I watch every new video. Detailing their daily lives, these two guys have this uncanny ability to put a smile on your face. They’re so upbeat and positive; it’s infectious. So, here’s a Methan video titled Bad Lip Reading (Part II).

party and some big, huge, bad thing happened. And everything changed. It’s a
few months until the end of the senior school year and Parker could not be more
alone. She has isolated herself from her friends, broken up with her boyfriend,
quit the cheer-leading squad, and began failing all her classes.
are flashbacks to this crazy party.
Each one gets you closer and closer to the event that changed Parker’s life.
You don’t find out until the end what happened that caused her to shut down and
be alone. (But there is a possibility that you could piece it together faster
than that.)
Main Character: I don’t really like
Parker Fadley because I don’t believe that anybody really wants to be alone.
But I am a huge fan of her comebacks and ‘you’re a horrible person’ snotty retorts.
Also I love the name Parker for a girl.

Title: Unwrapping Hank
Sloane loves a good mystery. He grew up as the son of two psychiatrists, so he finds most people tediously easy to figure out. He finds his way to Pennsylvania State University, longing for a rural experience, and ends up being lured into joining a frat by Micah Springfield, the hippest guy on campus.
Nothing in Sloane’s classes is as intriguing as Hank Springfield, Micah’s brother and fellow frat house member. Hank looks like a tough guy—big muscles, tats, and a beard—but his eyes are soft and sweet. He acts dumb, but he’s a philosophy major. He’s presumably straight, but then why does Sloane feel such crazy chemistry whenever Hank is around? And why does Hank hate Sloane so much?
When Sloane ends up stuck on campus over Christmas, Micah invites him to spend the holidays at their family farm in Amish country. It’s a chance to experience a true Americana Christmas–and further investigate the mystery that is Hank Springfield. Can Sloane unlock the secrets of this family and unwrap the heart hidden inside the beefcake?
“Crazy is an ambiguous term with no clinical meaning, and it’s insulting to mental health patients. Can you be more specific?”

Kelsey and
David became best friends the summer before freshman year and were
inseparable ever after. Until the night a misunderstanding turned Kelsey
into the school joke, and everything around her crumbled—including her
friendship with David. So when Kelsey’s parents decided to move away,
she couldn’t wait to start over and leave the past behind. Except, David
wasn’t ready to let her go…
After:
Now it’s senior year and
Kelsey has a new group of friends, genuine popularity, and a hot
boyfriend. Her life is perfect. That is, until David’s family moves to
town and he shakes up everything. Soon old feelings bubble to the
surface and threaten to destroy Kelsey’s second chance at happiness. The
more time she spends with David, the more she realizes she never truly
let him go. And maybe she never wants to.
Told in alternating sections, LAST YEAR’S MISTAKE is a charming and romantic debut about loving, leaving, and letting go.
