Julie is an ardent book lover and former English teacher, warmly welcomes readers to her blog. With a passion for literature spanning across genres such as classics, contemporary, fantasy, romance, young adult, sci-fi, and poetry, Julie's blog becomes a haven for fellow book enthusiasts.
Having spent eighteen years teaching high school English, Julie's career allowed her to indulge in her love for books on a daily basis. She played a crucial role in curriculum development within her district and even served as a member of a national curriculum advisory board for an educational publishing company. However, the demands of teaching left little time for leisurely reading.
Since leaving the teaching profession several years ago, Julie has embraced the opportunity to dedicate herself fully to reading. However, she found herself missing the joy of discussing books with others. This yearning for connection prompted her to create her blog, where she can now share her love of reading with fellow bookworms.
The name "One Book More" holds a special significance for Julie. It pays homage to both her passion for reading and her admiration for the musical Les Misérables. Inspired by the iconic song "One Day More" from the musical, Julie's desire to constantly delve into new books led her to coin the name "One Book More" for her blog. It encapsulates her unwavering enthusiasm for immersing herself in the world of literature and sharing her thoughts and recommendations with her readers.
Julie's blog offers a welcoming space for book lovers to join her in celebrating the written word. Through engaging book discussions, reviews, and recommendations, she invites readers to embark on literary journeys together, inspired by her own deep-rooted passion for reading.
