My name is Samantha Kinton and I am a current senior at The Franklin School of Innovation. In my free time, I love to read. When I am reading, the words flow off the page and fill my immediate world with wonder and adventure. My love of books has encouraged me to find the moments where only the purest of joys fill my mind. These observations have led me to reevaluate what it truly means to be happy or melancholy. This journey is something I wish to bring out into the world. I hope to share my own experiences in the trial that we call life.
