Reading a book where the main character is in deep danger all the time, hiding a huge part of her identity and discovery means death. But she's also very hot to trot for get biggest threat.

Growing up Mormon, I was taught that at the end of time, the US and Israel would face off against all the world in battle. The implication was that the US and Israel were the good guys. But, like, looking at things now: what if this is true but the US and Israel are actually the baddies?

There is a real special kind of anguish of being both a student and a teacher during finals week. Annoyances and technical errors on both ends!
