Hi. I'm JoLyn, one of the members of the Extreme Reader staff team. Here are a few facts about me: - If I had to pick one genre as my favorite, I couldn't. I think my top two are Historical Fiction and Romantic Comedies. My schooling focused on Victorian British Literature.
- My favorite candy is Reese's Pieces.
- I have an embarrassingly large collection of Strawberry Shortcake memorabilia.
Here are a few (more) facts about me: - My favorite color is orange.
- I’m an expert at roasting marshmallows. (No flaming ‘mallows for me)
- I like to collect hobbies, so I am fairly okay at knitting, crocheting, cross stitching, macrame, hand lettering, etc., but a master of none.
Some of my personal suggestions for 2021 categories:
A book with a metallic cover Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware A book with a book on the cover The Book of Lost Names by Kristin Hamel A book set in a city that has hosted the Olympics The Flatshare by Beth O'Leary Some (more) of my personal suggestions for 2021 categories: A book with a person’s name in the title Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbery A book set on a mode of transportation A book that takes place during the 1920s (teen) Bright Young Things by Anna Godbersen

Don't forget about the Goodreads Group At the request of many members, a group was created in Goodreads for the challenge, so you can get the recommendations flying! Please note, this is going to be a participant-run group. Other than adding events and maybe popping in occasionally, the Extreme Reader staff will be completely hands off. You can access the group with the link below or by visiting www.Goodreads.com>Community>Groups>search for TPL Extreme Reader 2021 and request to join.
