Joli

by Joli January 16, 2016

Occupation: Stay-at-Home Mom, Freelance Writer & Internet Marketer

City:  Minneapolis, MN

Preferred Genres:
Literary Fiction
Historical Fiction
Humor
The occasional juicy beach read
The Classics

Books I Love:
The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery
The Crying of Lot 49 by Thomas Pynchon
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd
My Glory Was I Had Such Friends by Amy Silverstein
All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr

Reading Habits:
Having graduated with a degree in English, I tend to be somewhat of a book snob. In the last couple years, I’ve done a terrible job at keeping reading high on my priority list, so this year I joined a book club. Somehow, I forget how much I like reading and get stuck doing crossword puzzles and watching Netflix. Book club is helping me keep on top of reading, though, and it’s brought back that rush of feelings I get from good books! So, here’s to never dropping into another terrible bookless lull again.
