#10 in Humor 15/05/17 #29 in Teen Fiction 02/11/16 DISCLAIMER: I wrote this story when I was thirteen, so I'm sure that there are A TON of mistakes and plot holes. Reader's discretion is advisable. ❝Even through the cloudy nights of gloom and gray, it is a star's light that brings out a new Day❞ When a girl starts off a new school for the first time in her life, she obviously expects it to be far from sunshine and happiness. Especially if she's joined in the middle of the school year and used to be able to get up whenever she wanted, had her very own governess and lived out in the boonies. Not Day Winters. Meet the girl who defies logic of every kind, as she faces the real world for what it is despite holding a huge secret- that she is an online blogger with more than half of the world's population in love with her. This population however, isn't in love with Day, but her online form Starlight24. In an endless roller coaster of love, secrets, fights and friendship, Day is forced to accept the fact that even a Star's light will eventually burn out, and that even her own flame may flicker out into an overrated Daydream. ✨✨✨ © 2015 All rights reserved.

When culture tells us what is appropriate, we accept it as the "views of the time". However, when do we, as human beings, draw the line of this popular acceptance? When--after we have questioned the structures of society--do we begin to stand up for our findings and challenge authority? Metro Riverton, a highly intelligent, dramatically arrogant teenage boy, is faced with these questions when he begins to think critically about the society he lives in. Is it fair to categorize people into the class they were born in? Should society be allowed to assume a person's strengths, weaknesses, and intellect based purely on their genetics and the caste of their parents? Take a journey with Metro--the famed "super kid" of his time--as he developes strong friendships, learns of new enemies, and discovers himself. Who knows? Maybe you'll find Metro has allowed you to open your own eyes--thinking critically and questioning your previous beliefs like never before. +-+-+-+-+ ❥ Thank you to my friend @-ariarose- for the lovely cover. ❥
