I am extremely bored. Anyone fancy a conversation? It can be on any topic. I don't care.

I am also quite bored. Anyhow, I'm Lex!

I'm Maple! Good to meet you!

It is also "good" to meet you. (Sorry for criticizing your grammar, I tend to do it a lot)
Have you read anything interesting lately?

(No problem, lol. A habit I picked up)
I haven't really had time to read actually. It makes me sad because I used to go through multiple books per day. However, my favorite book is The Last Time We Say Goodbye by Cynthia Hand. You?

I would have to say that my favorite book is "Symptoms of Being Human", mostly because I'm starved for genderfluid protagonists. I'm also in the middle of reading the second Dragonwatch.

Oh I haven't heard of either of those. What is the first one about?

Wait for a second, let me grab a description of the book.

Riley Cavanaugh is many things: Punk rock. Snarky. Rebellious. And gender fluid. Some days Riley identifies as a boy, and others as a girl. But Riley isn't exactly out yet. And between starting a new school and having a congressman father running for reelection in über-conservative Orange County, the pressure—media and otherwise—is building up in Riley's life.

On the advice of a therapist, Riley starts an anonymous blog to vent those pent-up feelings and tell the truth of what it's really like to be a gender fluid teenager. But just as Riley's starting to settle in at school—even developing feelings for a mysterious outcast—the blog goes viral, and an unnamed commenter discovers Riley's real identity, threatening exposure. And Riley must make a choice: walk away from what the blog has created—a lifeline, new friends, a cause to believe in—or stand up, come out, and risk everything.

oof that's heavy. Who's it by?

Jeff Garving.

Sorry, Garvin.

I'll have to have a look. Never heard of him.

Do you watch any television series?

Neither had I, until I read the book.
