About Me
From a young age, I’ve read to experience the lives of others (not that I don’t enjoy mine)! I tend to alternate reading fiction and nonfiction and read a wide range of genres and topics between the two. I love my fiction in the form of big thick books to devour for weeks and short stories I can read in one sitting, fun page-turners and literary fiction. As for non-fiction, I try to read things I’d like to understand better: history, science, and politics. Writing is important to me – though that can come in many forms: unique style, elaborate plots, heart pounding suspense or simply beautiful words. I used to force myself to finish every book I started, but I’ve long since let go of that silly habit and I encourage you to as well.
