They Both Die At The End is an incredible unpredictable-YA about living vs. dying. It features a gay Puerto-Rican main personality and a bisexual Cuban main character. I undertake have to say, this book really went beyond the pages for me. I wasn’t just concerned about the characters or the storyline, but it also forced me to address my own fears that have to perform with death. I’ve been facing a lot of bad anxiety related to death recently, and They Both Die At The End made it not possible for me to shove those feelings down any longer. It was similar to exposure therapy by drawing me to confront my issues rather than just creating more anxiety, so in the end, it was a positive outcome. This is definitely a masterpiece of abstract fiction. Abstract fiction, for me, is meant for emotions, as adequately as being meant for exploration and discovery. This book is a story of a last chance and a last night for two very other people, but it's a story that's best perceived personally. It story asks you to alter yourself every single day.

Read below to grasp more about his writing process, his inspirations, and his passion for everything Harry Potter.
What first inspired you to write books for young adult audiences?
More Happy Than Not is about this teenage young man who’s trying to choose if he wants to peruse this new procedure to forget that he’s gay, because he thinks life as a vertical teen would be much easier. I think that spoke more to a young adult audience. Also, I love YA. I’ve worked in children’s publishing, specifically with children and young adult novels, so it felt like a natural move for me.
What books, movies, or other forms of pop society have influenced your labor the most, and how?
I’m a reader because of Harry Potter. My manual isn’t fantasy, but it’s what made me a reader. I became a reader later in experience wh
Silvera brings happiness to CHS students
Sporting 11 tattoos and a sassy attitude, bestselling author Adam Silvera strolled into the Coppell Steep School library on Friday to talk about books.
Silvera began writing at 11, when he wrote Harry Potter fan fiction. He did this until, one day, he decided he needed to write his own story. “You can’t be a famous fan fiction writer,” he said. So he began to write original stories.
Silvera went to a private college, but once his father left his family, his mother could not settle for private school and bills. Because of this he went weeks or months without going to school because they simply could not pay the fees. He did not let this chance depart to waste, though, and spent his time off writing.
More Happy Than Not was written because of the misconception around sexuality.
“People think we opt to be who we are,” Silvera said. “I didn’t choose to be gay. I mean, choosing to be gay in south Bronx seems backwards. I was really answering the question: ‘What if you could choose your sexuality?’ And that’s where the involvement of the memory institute [Leteo] was involved.”
The title More Glad Than Not came from the f
Spring 2015 Flying Starts: Adam Silvera
Years ago, Adam Silvera gave himself the goal of becoming a published writer before he turned 25. He made it, but just barely. His debut novel, More Happy Than Not (Soho Teen), was initially scheduled for fall 2015 publication. Even after its let go was bumped up to mid-June, the new meet fell just after his 25th birthday. “Having a book published whenever is a huge honor,” says the New York Metropolis author, though he admitted to feeling a tiny disappointed when he realized he would miss his goal by such a slim margin. However, another date change—in order to ensure that copies were available when Silvera participated in this year’s iteration of the Openly YA book tour, which celebrates gay characters in YA literature—brought the novel into the world on June 2, just in second. “I had a very underwhelming 25th birthday,” he says. “How do you follow up launching a career?”
The conceit for More Happy Than Not, about a Bronx teenager who is considering using a memory-wiping procedure to erase his knowledge that he is gay, came from Silvera’s refle
