Books For Young Adult Boys…(and Girls)

Big Girl Small- Rachel DeWoskin

I believe we live in possibly the most narcissistic age of human history. No generation has been photographed or filmed more than this one. We have cameras everywhere. On our phones, on our laptops, on our desktop computers and the truth of the matter is, our teens are so used to documenting everything they do on film, [...]
