Hey everyone my name is Shayla and I am currently a student at the University of Lethbridge taking a Bachelor of Arts with a major in Native American Studies as well as an Education degree. I one day hope to teach upper year elementary school or middle school, I want to work really hard in my future career to instil a love of reading in children. I think that is so important to the success of children and youth. I spend most of my time hanging out with my friends and family playing board games, watching movies, crafting and of course reading. I also have a love of travelling and my bucket list is a mile long and ever growing. I hope to have a blog about it one day and am slowly working on creating one. I also have dreams of writing a young adult book one day, but so far I have not found the right idea or inspiration. I am starting this blog to help myself keep on with my resolution to review the books I read, as well as to help me keep on track with my 70 book reading goal.
I have a deep and undying love of all things young adult. I enjoy how gripping, beautifully written and easy (most) of these books are to read. I especially enjoy the works of Neal Shusterman, Tahereh Mafi, Stephanie Garber and Scott Westerfeld. I read pretty much exclusively young adult books, but I am open to reading almost anything! So please feel free to give me some recommendations. |
