Welcome to the Book Hawk!

Hello!

Hi, everybody! My name is Jamie, and I’m a college girl with a passion for reading. If you’re a bibliophile like me, you’re in good company! On the Book Hawk, you’ll find book reviews, recommendations, and updates on my latest reads.

About Me

• Favorite genres: fantasy, sci-fi, young adult, and nonfiction
• Favorite series: Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling. I could go on forever about everything I love about this series.
• Favorite book: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling
• Book that I was surprised that I was surprised to enjoy: Kaffir Boy by Mark Mathabane. This was actually required reading in my senior year of high school. In retrospect, I’m glad it was because it helped me develop a deeper appreciation for books about struggles with racism and socioeconomic inequality.
• Book(s) that I’m ashamed to admit I read voluntarily: The entire Twilight Saga
• Favorite TV shows: Avatar: The Last Airbender, Merlin (BBC), The Dragon Prince, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, The Good Place, Game of Thrones, RWBY
• Hogwarts house: Ravenclaw through and through!
• Favorite animals: I love animals in general, but if I had pick favorites I’d choose cats (great and small), wolves, otters, and birds.
• I play the flute (my preciousssss).
• Favorite music genres: hard rock, metal, alternative, and jazz
• Favorite movies: The Harry Potter film series of course, the Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Help, and The Sixth Sense
