Bookworm in the valley of the sun

Post by Jlynn »

Hi there!
I'm Jes, 28, from Arizona (Idaho in the spring)
Taking a break from school right now and in a way I'm glad; I get to catch up on my personal reading.
I haven't always loved reading. It became an escape in my early 20s.
I think that's why I can actually classify myself as a bookworm; instead of drinking until I forget, doing drugs to escape reality.. I chose books.
I would love to discover new authors and start reviewing as I feel in a world that can't stop talking about one book at a time (I'm looking at you, the fault in our stars) it's hard for me to find something new.
I like thrillers, mystery, psych, horror, dystopias, romantic comedy (not too mushy) and dark and deep stuff.
