Welcome to sm.reads.books!

While reading and writing may seem like separate endeavors, once a community brings them together, the opportunities are endless.

I started the sm.reads.books Instagram account to share my love of literature with those around me and to provide a meeting place for my fellow novel enthusiasts.

The purpose of this website is to establish a community where writers can publish their own pieces of writing pertaining to books. If you are interested in being a writer for this site, contact Sana Muneer.

About Sana Muneer

I am Sana Muneer, and I am the creator of sm.reads.books. I am currently a senior in high school, and I have been an avid reader and writer for as long as I can remember.

My favorite book is The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab. My favorite genres are fantasy, thrillers, and dystopian.

When I am not devouring novels, you can catch me jamming out to Taylor Swift, daydreaming about fictional characters, or exploring new destinations (Rome is my favorite)!

If you're interested in writing for this website or sending a book recommendation my way, don't hesitate to email me at sm.reads.books@gmail.com or DM @sm.reads.books on Instagram is the quickest way to contact me!
