Hey guys!
I'm Kaite, as some of you know. I'm part of the forum staff, and give the odd review on the mainsite too. I come from sunny Queensland, Australia.
Sometimes too sunny. One of these days I'll end up in London. Or the UK. Somewhere.
A bit about me:
Favourite book: I have too many to chose one. So probably Vampire Academy, The Mortal Instruments, Study Series, Harry Potter and
Chronicles of Narnia would rate highly. Also, recently, the Mistborn trilogy by Brandon Sanderson is up there. Also a recent addition, anything
Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan-Doyle.
Favourite author: Richelle Mead. No questions. There is something about her writing that I just love. YA and Adult series. She is
just brilliant.
Favouirte movie: Anything with Ben Barnes. I love that guy, as many people here probably know. He is amazing. Sooo Dorian Gray and
Chronicles of Narnia are top of my list. Along with Lord of the Rings and Pirates of the Caribbean. Adding on too, the RSC edition of Hamlet with
David Tennant. A masterpiece of theatre.
TV shows: BBC's Sherlock. Seriously, go and watch if you haven't. Benedict Cumberbatch is an amazing talent who just owns that role.
Martin Freeman is also spectacular. Recent and new obsession with Doctor Who and Torchwood. David Tennant, Matt Smith and John Barrowman are brilliant
and fantastic. Also Merlin deserves a mention along with Glee.
What I do: I'm a uni student. I study Drama and English - a bizarre and crazy mix that I love. I also take any opportunity I can to
perform in musical theatre and music in general. Singing, dancing, playing piano, violin and guitar...I love my music.
If you have questions, feel free to ask.
=)

Congrats on the reviewing post Katie! I'm sure you'll be a great asset to the team. Like everyone else, I'm looking forward to reading your
reviews.
Respect for the Ben Barnes there as well :P Easy Virtue & Dorian Gray are my faves, but he is such a hot Prince Caspian!

Hi Katie!
Woohoo, aussie, huh? Can I make a crack at your accent? :P JK, I love it, even if I AM a NZer.
Just want to give my thanks for all the work you and the crew do!
I also have a big soft-spot for the books you had up as favorites too.
Cool, and thanks again!
