Be that as it may, I decided that I would answer questions (that no one actually asked me). It is kind of like I am talking to myself, but shhh. So, uh, who are you anyway?
Shannon.
That isn’t very helpful.
Sorry, you really didn’t specify the context. I write the things around here. And I like you for stopping by. Unless you just said “this blog is the worst and this girl is pissing me off”, in which case, I take it back.
Okay, well, what is this blog about?
Books. Bookish things. Anything really random that I have to get out of my head. I guess the two words that are most appropriate are “bookish randomness”. Also shows. You can thank The 100 for that, and for a lot of other things.
What kind of books, specifically?
Adult and YA fiction. Especially speculative fiction, sci-fi, anything apocalyptic or dystopian, and recently I have gotten into horror. The darker the better, except for every so often when one of my favorite romance authors puts out a new book.
Why a book blog, anyway?
I ask you, why not a book blog? Because I like to read, and I like to share opinions, and I like to discuss these things with this amazing community.
(In case you didn’t know, they’re kind of the best.)
What else do you do?
What don’t I do? That sounds a little… pompous, but nah, just busy. I am currently teaching special ed full time/student teaching (yes both at once, it’s weird but it’s fine) and then I take classes at night, and I have two kids, and they have a million things and so I am never, ever bored.
Can you tell me some things you like so I can decide if we are compatible?
I mean, okay, but I am sure we will be. I like The Hunger Games series, The 100 (the show), traveling, which I wish I got to do more of, sleeping (see traveling), swimming (gosh I miss it), spending money I don’t have on books and bookish things, and you know, doing this blogging stuff.

There is a possibility that my daughter will decide to change jobs and look for something nearby. That is definitely something to look forward to!
