Book Talk



      My book is called Secret Fire it is by Johanna Lindsey. The genre of my book is realistic fiction/romance. This book takes place in Victorian London; in this book the main characters are Katherine St. John and Dimitri Alexandrov. Katherine is short, thin, and a brunette, she has large turquoise eyes and is well known for her abilities to adapt; she is also known for her calm demeanor. Dimitri is tall, blond, and has brown eyes, he is known for being able to charm just about anyone, and has an explosive temper. Both of there lives change after a fateful encounter, after which they are stuck with each other. This tale continues as Dimitri tries and fails multiple times to charm Katherine.  As the story progresses they begin to grow fond for each other, however fate has other plans. This book has a bittersweet mood, and will charm and anger you until the last page. The theme is that seemingly terrible events can end up changing your life for the better. I loved this book because the characters were sweet and endearing with as many layers as an onion. The most memorable part is when Dimitri confronts his aunt about the terrible things that she did to Katherine. I would recommend this book to anyone with time on their hands that loves to see characters become real on the page. This book teaches beautiful lessons about life and love, and will leave a reader with a sense of fulfillment. Others should read this because the things taught in this book will help them in life. This is one of my personal favorites and I am glad to share it with you.

  1. I think that you did a good job and I think that it was smart to keep the video shorter. This book sounds interesting, but I don't really know much about it. I think that maybe you should've talked a little more about the plot and a little less about the character's personalities. But I think that this was a good video overall.
