Ash

by Joli

Occupation: Barista

City: Atlanta, GA

Preferred Genres:

Science Fiction
Fantasy
Poetry
Nonfiction

Favorite Books:

The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern
A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chambers
The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater
The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson

Reading Habits: 

When I was five years old my dad read The Hobbit to me aloud, jumpstarting a lifelong love of fantasy and science fiction. For me, reading is an escape, a temporary respite from a hectic world. I tend to listen to a lot of audiobooks because they allow for multitasking, but my favorites always end up reread and annotated in paperback on my shelves.
