Hello!! I’m Rachel from Wisconsin, and I’m 23 years old. I am also a huge introvert, and it's been so nice to read everyone’s responses. It has made me feel less alone.🥰🥹 My favorite genres are romance and fantasy. I’ve recently been trying to get into mystery/thriller, so if you have any recommendations, I'd really appreciate them. I have recently found out that I love romance books with a hint of mystery or mystery with romance. I’ve also realized I love small-town/cowboy romances, so I’ll be reading more of those in the future.

My favorite books are In Her Own League by Liz Tomforde and Love, Theoretically and Deep End by Ali Hazelwood. My two favorite series are the Windy City series by Liz Tomforde and the An Ember in the Ashes series by Sabaa Tahir, both of which have broken my heart on several occasions.

Between cats and dogs, I’m a dog person. But I really don’t like either; no specific reason, just don’t really like them. The exception is the golden retriever. We had one when I was little his name was Tiger, and he was the friendliest guy you’d ever meet.🦮🥰

Now, outside of reading, I don’t have too many hobbies, but I rewatch movies and shows like it’s going out of style.😂 I just finished watching The Golden Girls for the first time, and I’m already rewatching it. Now my other favorite shows include The Pitt, The Lincoln Lawyer, Off Campus, Heated Rivalry, Ransom Canyon, and Ginny and Georgia. I also recently got a DVD player, so I’m rewatching a lot of old favorites and watching new-to-me movies (thank you to my library🥰). My favorite movies are (citing my Letterboxd top 4): Remember the Titans, Pretty Woman (just watched this for the first time 🩷), Twisters, and 27 Dresses. Honorable mentions to Sweet Home Alabama and The Intern. I’m also a big Christmas movie lover: How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Home Alone 1 & 2 (the other ones that don’t exist to me 😂).

When I’m not doing any of those things, I’m watching sports, with football and baseball being my favorites. Being from Wisconsin, I am a Brewers and Packers fan (yes, I’m used to the heartbreak at this point😂😭). Football season is starting back up again, so someone may want to check in on me mentally in October or November.😂 I’m such a big sports fan; I hope to work in sports one day, hopefully in marketing 🤞🏻. I’m also currently working on my Master's in Marketing, and I’m dreading the start of the fall semester (the summer break has been glorious😂).

You will also catch me at my local library at least twice a week. I’m either picking up my copious amounts of holds, or I’m just browsing. I’ve found so many good books and movies I’d never heard of, and I’ve found some movies I’ve been meaning to watch. So a HUGE thanks to my local library! 💕
