About

Hello there!

My name is Brittney Brianne. I am a teenager, Jesus-follower, writer, and– as you’ve probably picked up– book-fanatic. I like drinking foo-foo coffee, curling up with a book or computer, chatting with friends, jamming on my guitar, playing my violin, and baking (all while denying the mess).

My friends get the extroverted side of me, while acquaintances think I’m quiet. Either way, I tend to laugh at even the stupidest jokes and, at the same time, try to bring meaning to even the simplest conversations. 

I have often felt that, while there were countless good books out there, I didn’t know where to start. So, hopefully, in this blog, Christian teens will find a resource and a kindred spirit who is always ready to jump into new worlds or unpack deep thinking in between the pages of a book.

I believe that stories shape our souls, and we need to fill our minds with quality books. So, whether you love bunnies with swords (think the Green Ember) or dragons and knights (uh… most of my faves) or powerful themes (like those in the Wingfeather Saga) or inspirational true stories of courage (such as The Hiding Place), I hope that this blog will glorify God and that you’ll find my thoughts helpful!
