This week I read Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson. It is about a girl named Kate who is relying on getting into MIT. She doesn't tell anyone, but it is the only college she applied to. Her father is a preacher, and she acts like a perfect kid, but on the inside she really isn't. Their neighbors, the Litch's house burns down, and Teri and Mikey move in with Kate and her little brother Toby. Teri and Kate have always been enemies and Kate has to work on opening up to her. This book is almost 300 pages long, and it is pretty appropriate for any age. Kate and Teri were both really deep and interesting characters. Kate has 2 sides: Good Kate and Bad Kate, and it is interesting how they both come up in the book. And Teri just has a lot of hard things to deal with, and it is interesting to see her in that position. Overall I just think this was a really good book and I recommend it.
