Or maybe you're just really confused about what "opal-tinted, luminous cerulean orbs" actually are?
Well, popular Twitter personality @broodingYAhero is here to help as he tackles the final frontier in his media dominance: writing a book. Join Broody McHottiepants as he attempts to pen Brooding YA Hero: Becoming a Main Character (Almost) as Awesome as Me, a "self-help" guide (with activities--you always need activities) that lovingly pokes fun at the YA tropes that we roll our eyes at, but secretly love.
As his nefarious ex, Blondie DeMeani, attempts to thwart him at every turn, Broody overcomes to detail, among other topics, how to choose your genre, how to keep your love interest engaged (while maintaining lead character status), his secret formula for guaranteed love triangle success, and how to make sure you secure that sequel, all while keeping his hair perfectly coiffed and never breaking a sweat.

Review:
If you want something different than every other YA book out there, I highly recommend picking up Brooding YA Hero: Becoming a Main Character (Almost) as Awesome as Me. It's so unique and original with an amusing take on what we commonly see in YA books still today.
And it's not your typical plot-driven novel, although there was a plot, but it's also a "guide" to becoming a YA main character, or more like a guide to what we see in the books that we read. And without giving away spoilers to the plot of the book - I really loved how Carrie Ann DiRisio used the guide within the story for the purpose of the plot in the book.
But this book isn't complete without the quizzes you can take, the word search, and the other extras that were added to the story. And if you haven't had the chance yet, you might want to check out Broody's twitter account, because it contains the same amount of sass that this novel did. And it's the perfect book if you are looking for a quick read - I read it in just a couple of hours.
