Books are the quietest and most constant of friends: they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.

I am a 7th grade Language Arts teacher. Spreading the love of reading has always been a passion in my life. I spent six years teaching English at the high school level and have currently spent the past four years with middle school students.

It is because of these wonderful students that I found the young adult genre. Nothing thrills me more than finding a book that best matches my students’ interests.

My favorite genres range from non-fiction, science-fiction, and dystopian novels.
