Catherine Called Birdy

The book Catherine Called is a historical fiction novel taken place in the medieval ages. The character is teenage girl called Catherine try's to get free from her locked up by trying to get equal rights, gender equality, and power of the church. You can tell she is trying to get free because she keeps getting locked up in her chamber, like when she burned down the barn, that just proves that shes a fighter. Equal rights because she wants to be able to choose her marriage, like when she was forced to marry Shaggy Beard. Gender equality because she gets mad that the boys get all the adventure and the girls gotta stay home and clean. Like when she was sad that she couldn't become a crusader. Power of the church because Catherine thought they made such boring and depressing, like those feast they always had. All in all life in medieval ages was extremely difficult and fustrating.
