That's one Rare Bird: Introducing Jenna
I'm not bragging here but, our members are the coolest. Rare Birds has a community of smart, funny and interesting women reading along with us each month and I couldn't be more excited about introducing them to you.
If you've ever wondered just who's in the club, wonder no more. We've got a whole series of interviews lined up to help you get to know some of the amazing people who make up Rare Birds Book Club.
First up: Jenna.
Jenna is one of the OG subscribers - I'm talking one of the first ten. You might already know her from our forum, and though she "reads slowly" (her words!) she's known to pop up before she's actually finished reading, sometimes accidentally taking in spoilers as she goes. We might call her a reading rebel (or we might not...)
Enough from me - here's our subscriber Jenna in her own words
My name is Jenna
I live in London and I work in television
For fiction probably Something Borrowed. I also liked The Fault In Our Stars. That’s the only book I ever cried with. More recently it would be Dolly Alderton's Everything I Know About Love
All of the Harry Potters after book three. I just couldn’t get through book four… it was too long. *&^$ that book
The book. Unless Zac Efron’s in the movie….
In bed
When you finish a chapter and you realise you don’t know what happened because you weren’t paying attention.
Currently at the moment? The crying laughing emoji. But my favourite is the one hand shrug, the sassy one.
Stalk my work crush on social media [editor's note: she insists 'that was a joke']
That I always have a good story
Sensitive, Funny, Curious
Travelling alone
Box of tissues. A lamp. My current read. Glass of water. Lip balm. And usually my phone
Because a psychic told me a book was going to bring me and my future husband together so I thought I should start reading more.
Yes. I’m a person that weird things happen to so it would probably be a series of essays about the ridiculous things that have happened in my life.
