What am I doing and Who is StephTheBookworm?

Oh hey, I'm Steph, a college student in my early twenties and a HUGE bookworm.

I'm currently in college working towards my Bachelor's degree in English Literature. Once I finish up, the plan is to get my Master's Degree in Library and Information Science and become a public librarian. Basically, books are my true love and I want to spread that to the community by being a librarian. Until then, I am a full time student, and work part time as a pharmacy technician.

Reading and writing are my true passions in life and someday I'll utilize that . . . for now, I'll write book reviews.

I've been writing since I was young, and still do when I'm feeling inspired. I mostly write poetry and short stories. More importantly though, I've been reading ever since I was old enough to . . . so about 3 months old. (FACT . . . just kidding). I've always loved books for as long as I can remember. I have a gigantic collection that has literally taken over my room. I haven't seen the floor in months. No joke. And I just keep on buying . . . my family treats it as though it's some kind of heinous drug habit or something. "MORE books? Where are you going to put them?" It'll be alright. Once I get my own house, I plan on having my very own library.

Anyways, I will read practically anything. I mostly enjoy contemporary fiction, women's fiction, chick lit, romance, YA, suspense, paranormal, urban fantasy, memoirs, and true crime. I don't read historical romance, or political/legal thrillers, and that's about it as far as my "don't read" category goes. I typically read a book a week, more or less depending on my work and school schedule. My favorite places in the world are the library and Barnes and Noble. Yes, I am a nerd and damn proud of it.

I have a very close knit trio of friends. I'm incredibly quiet and very hard to get to know, but when you do know me, I won't shut up. My friends and I are quite quirky, and when I'm not reading, talking about books, or blogging about books, you can find me doing something with my friends. We love to play board games and card games, and make horribly cheesy movies and music videos. I am dead serious.
