My Evergreen Reading List
As someone who has built a career around storytelling and writing, reading books have not only been a joy but a source of knowledge, resource, and inspiration.
Reading sparks my creativity in different ways. I love learning from a wide range of voices and experiences. Their stories inspire me to tell my stories.
Here’s my evergreen reading list. I love taking note of which books I’ve read so I can share them with others. I’m open to any recommendations, so if you have something to share, feel free to drop me a line.
Happy reading!
Jenny
