Books to avoid - Media Video Transcripts

There are so many books that I read in high school that I just would not recommend. I would avoid them. Number one being 1984. I read that I think my senior year of high school and honestly like it was fascinating but there were also parts of it that made me really uncomfortable and I didn't really feel like it was appropriate for a high school setting so that's one to avoid. Another one is Fahrenheit 451. That one was also not my favorite. I just couldn't get through it. It was it was another dystopian novel that just didn't bring me joy so maybe avoid those two.

So, I really like the musical Wicked, however the book is not great. The first lots of chapters are just talking about Elphaba's mom's adultery and it's really not great. It's weird and hard to get into. I wouldn't recommend even starting it. Enjoy the musical instead.

Books to avoid or any that tell you it's okay to be in your feelings for days, take days off, take breaks and say it's okay to not be our best because you know there's people who care about us and we're not doing our best. Avoid these books because they develop a negative, selfish, loathing mindset. We don't want this. We don't want to stay the same. We want to grow and become better.
