THEBOOKBLONDIE
Blondes have more books.
Blonde, bookish, and anonymous, thebookblondie spends her free time reading, writing, and teaching. She sets ambitious reading goals and takes pleasure in surpassing her own expectations. Thebookblondie is a middle school English teacher and seeks to foster a love of reading in all of her students. She grades in purple ink and is known to crack a pun from time to time. It's already known that blondes have more fun, and thebookblondie seek to prove that blondes also have more books.
