No, that’s not how works of literature are arranged here. But you can do an advanced search to find what you’re looking for. On line one, in subject: fiction. On line two, in subject: mystery. Or if you have a favorite author, just search by the author’s name. We don’t have a huge selection of mysteries. I recommend getting a BPL e-card (bit.ly/BPL-ecard), downloading the Libby app, and signing up with your BPL account, to read ebooks or listen to audiobooks.

Not being human, I’m already at a loss to know what it would be like being one, let alone being one who’s trying out life as a different species of mammal. I’m intrigued. I like your drawing.

How do you know if what major I want to do is the right thing?

How do you know if what major I want to do is the right thing?

There’s so many different variables to balance when choosing a major. If I had to choose, I would struggle with choosing because there’s so many subjects I am interested in. I recommend talking with people you trust and making a pro / con list. Another exercise that could be helpful is to define for yourself what “right” means. Is “right” something you like to study? Something that will lead to a career path you are interested in? Or something else entirely?

How do you move on from a unrequited crush?

How do you move on from a unrequited crush?

Sorry about that, it’s an under-appreciated worst thing. 1) Feel your feelings. This is a kind of grief, so you might be sad or angry or a bunch of things. Give yourself space to feel that. 2) Take no for an answer. If you can be friends with them, great, but that might not feel OK to you. That’s fine. But the Hollywood storyline where you make them change their mind is not a good model here–IRL it’s at least borderline stalkery. 3) Live your life enthusiastically and you will meet many more lovely people, some of whom you’ll click with.
