We Stood At God's Feet, Equels
Jane Eyre, by Charlotte Bronte, is a fantastic example of the characteristics that dominated the Romantic era of the 19th century, especially the stereotypes of women. Bronte, a prominent author, perhaps best known for Jane Eyre – becoming famous only after her death at the age of thirty-nine , uses a first-person narrative rich with gothic, supernatural, and romantic themes, to tell the story of Jane, a young orphan who has much to overcome in her life.

Two Accounts of Creation
People often like to question where exactly it is that they came from. There are many theories, both religious and, of course in this day and age, scientific, but human beings have been wondering about our existence since the beginning; “Why are we here? How did we get here?” There are two accounts of Creation included in Genesis, which is the first section of the Bible. Both accounts deal with the creation of animals, plants, and humans but are rather contradictory in how they present that information. Why would both accounts be included in the Bible, when people clearly want one solid explanation? It's simple; the first account deals with the creation of the world and the heavens, and the second, the creation of humankind.

What Is Authenticity and Why Is It Important?
Authenticity is a term meaning real, genuine, or credible; the opposite meaning false, phony or dishonest. When ascribed to culture, it becomes rather complex. We must put into categories, then, and try to examine the meanings of authentic culture and inauthentic culture to answer the question.

YA Dystopian Books
So, I love to read. I'm probably the biggest book nerd I've ever met, and I've met a lot of people - meaning, hot damn do I ever have an addiction. I'll read anything I can get my hands on, mostly teen fiction mind you, because let's face it, YA is a fantastic genre! And, lovely readers, do you know what types of books I love the most when it comes to YA? The Dystopian books! Especially the ones that cross over into Science-Fiction.
