If you know me at least a little, and know what Christy is, you might find it weird that Christy is one of my favorite characters. Christy, by Catherine Marshall, is usually not found in the general fiction section of book stores, but in the inspirational Christian section. It's about a girl in the early 1900s who goes to do missionary work in the Appalachian Mountains, questions her faith, and learns about God and herself. Most people who know me know that I am not a Christian, and that while I am not against any religion, I do not have one. I feel strongly about this. Christy Huddleston helped me feel this way.
