Writings I Love
A list of books and short stories that I love to peices and back again.
How I Live Now is a wonderful, gut-wrenching, stream-of-consciousness style novel about modern teenage American Daisy and her English cousins in wartime. This never ceases to make me cry.
The simple, sweet story of Owen and how one girl named Natalie led him to realize how very little he really knew about life and how wonderful life could be.
Told from the viewpoint of young, clever Oskar as he searches New York for the lock to a key his father left. It's a modern day Post-9/11 fairy tale, juxtaposing the present with the WWII Dresdan bombings.
The book I always wanted to write until I discovered it had already been written. A teenaged boy steps into a time machine and transported back to the year 1212, during the Children's Crusade and must use his modern ingenuity to save the children.
