Confessions of a Teenage Bibliophile- Kathleen

Kathleen has also graciously answered our questions!*

Who is your idol (in real life or in fiction)?
Oooo, tough one.....probably all those main characters (mainly female ones) who make things in life look so easy to do, like solve a humongous mystery that stumps every one else, save someone's life, or even something as difficult as finding a perfect guy (which must be impossible). If something in my life had the option of being easy, I'd be so happy.

What's your favorite book? Why?
One of my many favorite books is City of Glass because after you read the other two books, you've really gotten to know the characters and then in City of Glass, it wraps everything up in type of way that makes you hate to put the book down or finish it. Of course, then Cassandra Clare decided it wasn't over, but still.....the idea is there.

Who is your favorite fictional character?
Another hard one!!!! I'd have to say Katsa from Graceling. The only reason I have is she's cool. :)

What's your favorite fictional world? If you could live there, would you?

The setting for the series Warriors is my favorite, and if I could live there, yes I would, but only as a cat (that's what all the characters are).

Is there a book you can relate to your life?

Not one that I've read yet.

What is your favorite movie based on a book?

Right now, the only book made into movie i can think of (that was good) is one of the Harry Potter ones. I didn't like the third, fourth, or fifth, but the first, second, and the sixth were good.

Do you have a favorite series of books?
Yes, Warriors by Erin Hunter.

Would you ever want to be an author? If so, what kind of book would you write?
Yes, being an author sounds fun to me, and I'd probably write something with fantasy in it because you can mess with things and make up stuff so as not to ruin the plot you want.

If you could change one thing about the library, what would it be?

The YA section. I don't know how exactly, but I thinks it's time for it to be changed.

Post-Thanksgiving Post

:) Did you like my pun there? I love bad jokes. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I know I did, I love cooking with my mom, I love eating, I love taking family pictures, I especially LOVE cranberry sauce and PIE, and I even kinds love washing dishes (don't laugh!) so Thanksgiving is pretty much an ideal holiday for me. This year it was also my grandma's birthday so I got to talk to her on the phone for an hour. Well...maybe talk isn't the word I should use, listen is better since my grandma likes to ramble on and on. Remind you of anyone you know? :) Leave a comment to tell me about any fun traditions you have on Thanksgiving? My sister reenacted the funny commercial where the grandpa eats a scoop out of the pumpkin pie and then fills it in with cool whip! Hope everyone also survived the insanity of Black Friday! I ventured out late that evening when it had died down, but I didn't buy much, just an awesome cd and my sister bought a wonderful documentary: ...

Reading Rainbow-Hair

A few months ago I decided (with the help of several teens) that I wanted to make my own booktube channel of youtube and now it's a reality! If you don't hang out in the bookish community on youtube I'll explain, booktube is basically what it sounds like. Youtube channels dedicated to people reviewing and talking about books. Lots of them focus on new YA books but really people read across all genres. That's what I want to do. I'm a Youth Services librarian, so I read and love a lot of YA books, but I also read didn't genres/age groups etc. and I'm going to talk about all of them on my channel. BUT I won't just be talking about books by myself, some episodes will feature guests stars! First though, I recapped my favorite books from 2014 in two episodes (I talk so much we had to cut it in half). Watch them! Do all those nice things you can do to a youtube video: Like, Comment, Share, Subscribe! Stay posted for more! DFTBA, Sti
