About Me:
My name is Katie, and I am a senior at Heritage Christian School. I am taking part in a course called British Literature. I have a HUGE passion for literature of all kinds as well as writing. For a large portion of high school I wanted to go on to study English in college, however God had some other plans for me! I plan on studying occupational therapy while continuing to enjoy and study literature.
Since this website is dedicated to all the wonderful books and poetry I have read this year, I should probably share what my all-time favorite books are (even if for no other reason than me having a time capsul of sorts). My most favorite book that blends historical fiction with a poetic nature is Book Thief! Mark Zusak's writing style is truly beautiful, and his talent cannot be denied. Another favorite of mine is Inferno. Its impressive nature makes it difficult to forget, and the alegorical meaning of the book brings a level of depth that few literary works achieve. Finally, I thoroughly enjoyed Animal Farm which speaks volumes about the political flaws of communism in a creative and impactful way. In addition to these books, I have read many wonderful works this year which you can find blog posts about through out this website :)
