“I hope that the 16-year-olds that will read this book in Sweden will also decide that they’re feminists.”
Last year, award-winning author Chimamanda Adichie published a book titled We Should All Be Feminists, based on her famous Tedx Talk from 2013.

If Harry Potter Was As Real About High School As "Skins"
Posted by Unknown on Wednesday, December 02, 2015
Aloho-mor-weed.
Both Skins and the Harry Potter series follow compelling groups of UK teens. But where Skins was beloved for its shockingly real depiction of teen partying, sex, drugs and mental health issues, Harry Potter has none of that.
Like, you've got several hundred teenagers locked in a boarding school together with a world of mischievous spells at their disposal. Somebody was smangin' at Hogwarts.

Colour doesn't have to be your main focus – you can think of texture too.
When it comes to colouring, think about all aspects of the page. "Some people like to colour in every single tiny little detail on a page", Millie Marotta, author of Animal Kingdom and Tropical Wonderland, tells BuzzFeed Life.
"And then you've got other people who like to colour in much larger areas, and will colour in an entire section that has details drawn. But they'll allow the line work to show through the colour – there'll be colour but there'll be texture underneath."

Hitler's "Mein Kampf" To Be Released In German For The First Time Since 1945

Hitler's Mein Kampf will be rereleased to the public with "critical commentary" by a group of German historians next year.
The book has not been officially published in German since 1945 after the government prevented its publication using copyright laws, but on Dec. 31 the copyright will expire.
The Institute for Contemporary History in Munich, a noted center on the study of Nazism, has added 3,500 academic annotations to the controversial book.
The institute claims a critical edition will allow it to counter "Hitler’s propaganda, lies, half-truths and vicious tirades," it said in a statement:
This critical edition of Mein Kampf also views itself as a contribution to historical-political information and education. It seeks to thoroughly deconstruct Hitler's propaganda in a lasting manner and thus to undermine the still effective symbolic power of the book.
In this way, it also makes it possible to counter an ideological-propagandistic and commercial misuse of Mein Kampf.
Each individual chapter in the book will be accompanied by introductory explanations and will evaluate Hitler's assertions through the eyes of "modern research".
In a statement released to the New York Times, a spokesman for one of Munich's Jewish leaders, Charlotte Knobloch, who survived the 1938 killing of Jews in the city, said Mein Kampf was a “disgusting incitement to hatred and the basis of the Holocaust.”
"The original text deserves neither discussion nor acknowledgment today," the statement said.

Mein Kampf , whose two volumes appeared first in 1925 and 1927, is a combination of memoir, anti-Semitic rant, and political party guidebook.
The new two-volume edition will sell for €59 ($63). The book will be published on Jan. 1 and will be in bookshops between Jan. 8–11.
