Hey book besties!
My name is Maggie, I am 25 years old and I live in Alberta, Canada. I have been reading for as long as I can remember. Books have always been my passion
and it's taken this long for me to realize that I should do something with my passion. I am currently working on a Bachelor of Arts, Majoring in English Literature!
Now let's do some bookish facts about me
-I prefer paperbacks over hardcovers. I also love audiobooks and eBooks. Any method to consume a book and I will do it
-I break the spines of my paperbacks but I don't dog-ear my books
-I have four bookshelves. One is a book tree that only has unread books on it and is organized by colour. A bookshelf and a half are all my unread books organized by genre and then by author's last name. Then the remainder of the shelf space is my read books organized by genre, then by author's last name.
-My favourite genres are historical fiction, thrillers/mysteries,
literary/contemporary fiction, romance, true crime, and memoirs
-I narrate in my head since I am unable to visualize!
-I have a spreadsheet of all the books I own and it's embarrassing how many I haven't read yet.
-My favourite authors consist of Fredrik Backman, Kristin Hannah, Kate Quinn and Jenny Han
-My favourite books change constantly but a couple are:
- The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
- We Were The Lucky Ones by Georgia Hunter
- The Great Alone by Kristin Hannah
- Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi
- All The Bright Places by Jennifer Niven
- To All The Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han
- Impulse by Ellen Hopkins
- Beartown by Fredrik Backman
-I prefer standalones over series
-I truly believe reading and buying books are two separate hobbies.
Here are a couple of places on the internet that I talk books
Let me know if we have anything in common! And tell me a little bit about you!
