I was lucky as a child to have my mother frequently take me and my siblings to the public library. I recall selecting a couple of books, one of which was always a Froggy book. I always liked it when my mother read us these stories because she was always expressive while reading, which made the stories more entertaining.

One childhood book that stands out is Junie B. Jones; I read many books about her because I thought the experiences she had throughout her school years were humorous and relatable. Another book that stand out is a series of unfortunate events which remind me of silt reading during school. The third book that stands out is wonder, I enjoyed the book's message about how important it is to be kind to others.

I read this book in middle school, and what I liked about it was that we would break into groups and discuss what we had read each day. After finishing the book, we watched the movie and were assigned a project to create a 3D meaningful scene from the book.

I didn't enjoy doing popcorn reading at school because it would stressed me out a lot which led me to not pay attention to what others will read since I was so focused on trying to read the next part in case I got chosen.

I've improved my pleasure reading over the last two years because I couldn't remember the last time I bought a book to read. This year, I've read three books, which is a record  for me. When I read a book, I usually do it at night and spend about an hour reading; if I go longer than that, I sometimes lose focus unless the book is really good.

Recently, I've been choosing books based on TikTok book recommendations. For instance, several months ago, I kept seeing this book on TikTok that claimed to be really good, so I bought it. Also, before purchasing a book, I always look it up on Goodreads to see what other people think about it.

My favorite genre is fiction because I find it more appealing and captivating because the author has more creative freedom to write a meaningful story. It also allows us to expand our imagination by transporting us to another world full of new ideas and possibilities. Another genre I enjoy reading is romance; in fact, most of the books I've bought contain some form of romance.

Any book in the non-fiction genre has to be one of my biggest book gaps. I've never been drawn to them because I dislike reading about facts and informative information. I quickly lose interest in this genre because I don't find it entertaining.

I wouldn't really consider myself a reader because I barely read any books. Also, I've realized that the only time I do read is during the summer, when i'm not in school. The reason for this is that I associate reading with school/homework, so when I have school, I don't think of reading as a way to take a break and relax.

I do want to become a better reader because I see how there's a lot of benefits that comes with reading while also being a good way to be entertained. Some future books that I want to read are, "The Seven Husband of Evelyn Hugo", "In Five Years", and "Ugly Love"

How my reading identity will shape my future classroom

My personal reading identity will influence my approach in the classroom by ensuring that students enjoy reading their books by allowing them to choose their own books rather than always assigning them something to read. Also, I want to make sure that there are a variety of genres in my classroom library so that every student can find something they enjoy. In addition, I will not use popcorn reading in my classroom because I am aware of the stress it can cause students. Overall, I just want students to have a positive reading experience.
