I like books.
A lot.
I have a degree in English Literature from the University of Tulsa (where my favorite class was a full semester on James Joyce’s Ulysses) and I have a library of over a thousand titles. I’ve been obsessively collecting (hoarding) books since I was old enough to read and I’ll read anything from literary fiction to romance to fantasy (and just about everything in between). A few of my most beloved books include Inkheart by Corneila Funke, Jane Austen’s Pride & Prejudice, The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas, The Luminaries by Eleanor Catton, and The Trees by Ali Shaw.
When I’m not reading, I’m probably working at the family business. You might also find me on the hunt for the world’s greatest London Fog, in a hammock by the lake, on a walk with my dog, or hard at work writing my own book.
I’m on Instagram and if you want to reach out you can email me at literaryjo23@gmail.com.
