A Basic Summary (Part two) When it came to cath writing was excellent her professors favourite Hands in her point of view unreliable narrator assignment in which she includes the characters from Simon Snow. Her professor says it is plagiarism even if she had her own plot and storyline and was given a big fat F To this she shook it off by dancing to Kanye West, which she usually did with Wren.
