How do you deal with reading crappy books and novels for school? I know I could be reading something better than a crappy YA Dystopia.

I'm not the best bullshitter so I really have to read the novel before I can write an essay about it.

How to deal?

It will definitely be crappy if you tell yourself often enough.

Why can't you just take it for what it is? Part of being well read is that you can compare books from a large spectrum, because you read a lot. How could you ever tell a 'good' book from a 'bad' book if you only read one or the other.

Don't be so stuck up. Sometimes you may even find a novel to be surprisingly enjoyable against your expectations.

It doesn't matter how bad it is, you can still write something insightful about it. If you're a decent writer you can get an original insight out of a puddle or a rock, let alone a whole story(regardless of quality)

If you don't read it you're just ignoring the opportunity to practice making gold out of dog shit. Probably because you secretly fear failure.

if it's really really awful consider it as a product of the author and examine the forces in the author's life which lead to the creation of such an abomination.

Also, if what you say is true (which it probably is), I'd like to learn it for myself. It's one thing to say that a path isn't worth taking, it's another thing to go along it and to really have the impression stamped indelibly into your mind.

sure. 99.9% of celebrities or popular personalities seem decent and fun and interesting. that's part of being a celebrity. To make people like you by projecting a personality that is likeable.

I bet you're the kind of person who has tons of favorite actors and think that they're generous altruistic and amazingly nice people.

Frankly, I saw nothing but pretension in that video and her attempts at showing "sadness" when recounting her "slump" some time back was laughable. I guess she isn't trying too hard for an acting career.

I bet being blessed with ridiculous genes, being wealthy and have fame and adoration from thousands for being attractive and "quirky" could be stressful. You should tweet your empathies with her. She sure has it tough in life. But hey, at least she is finding ways to deal with it by "going shopping" and "dancing in the rain".

A part of me wishes something terrible happens to her so that it disfigures or scars her beauty. So that she spends the rest of her life actually having to work hard to earn a living. To see her followers on twitter/instagram slowly wane away. For her to come to the realization that she can't sail through life by bouncing her tits on video for a million sex-starved NEETS. Fuck her life. Fuck her. Fuck everything about her. I'd feel an immense feeling of fleeting satisfaction wash over me if something terrible happens to her. I obviously would never actively work to make that happen but it would be nice to one day wake up and find out that something like this did. But that moment probably won't come.
