Hello from California!

Unread post

Hey! My name is Kacie, I'm 18 years old, and I love Spanish and English poetry/literature. I read a lot of fiction, but I'm trying to immerse myself more in the non-fiction and autobiographical scene. I recently discovered poet Sharon Olds and am currently hiding my nose in her "An Unswept Room". I adore authors and poets who are willing to take risks and push themselves, as well as their readers, to new and uncharted heights. I'm a big believer of the idea that "any book worth banning is a book worth reading!" I'm very open to new ideas and people, and love making new friends (especially those who like to read as much as I do! :D ), and I'd love to meet you!

Ciao!

Hi Kacie,
It's good to see there are still young people who enjoy reading. I wish I could get my granddaughter interested.
