About Me

I'm a future English teacher and definitely still a teen at heart. I find myself still preferring YA books to many of the "adult" books I should be liking... maybe my imagination is still overactive!

Favorite Subjects

English! Reading, writing, editing, reviewing, all that business is what I live for.
