Ms. Smith's Book Lists
Since I was a little girl, I have read compulsively. From Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to Anne of Green Gables to the Alanna series to Pride and Prejudice to Hunger Games and Perfect Chemistry, my love of literature is large and varied, I enjoy all types of good books, but my favorite genres are romance, supernatural and fantasy. In fact, I have an acute fear of being somewhere with nothing to do and no book to read, which my iPhone and Overdrive have helped relieve.
After teaching English and drama for three years in South Dakota, I went to Queens College in NYC and earned my Master's of Library Science as a school media specialist. Since 2005, I have been the librarian at Washington High School in Sioux Falls, SD. After working with teens for over ten years, I know what books resonate with teens, and I love giving book recommendations to and receiving book recommendations from students. For years, I have dreamt of sharing my favorite books with the public to help others find books that match their interests. With the help of Weebly, I have been able make my dream come true. I hope these lists will help you find books that you will love. I have only included books on the list that I have read and enjoyed.
Below are some my personal favorites from throughout my life.
