The Writer's LibraryI am a literature geek with a Bachelor's degree in English with a writing concentration. I love to read, and I'm always itching to write, especially creatively. I started "The Writer's Library" in high school, previously working with a Blogger platform before moving over to WordPress. While I mainly post reviews of books, occasionally I will go ahead and review works in other media forms as well, such as music and certain television shows. No matter what I'm doing on here, I love to share with anyone who is willing to listen, and I'm excited to finally be on WordPress!

Watership Down by Richard Adams My rating: 5 of 5 stars In loving memory of Richard Adams (1920 – 2016) My relationship with Watership Down began about a year ago, (2013), on a sunny May afternoon. It was warm outside and I was basking in the sunlight on the terrace, allowing the swinging bench I […]
I’m new to this. For now, I will be posting reviews of books I’ve read on goodreads.com. Just a simple post on this new medium. I may also post some of my own writings as well. We’ll see where this goes.
