Emani
Welcome!
I love to read, travel, write, and enjoy being creative.
If you also:
- love getting lost in fictional worlds
- want to read more/start a bookstagram, or
- are interested in becoming a lawyer/are in law school
then I see us being great friends! And the great thing about friendships is that there aren’t any secrets. In that case, consider this blog your one-stop shop for all things books, bookstagram, and law school. Before we can be besties, I should probably introduce myself.
Hi! I’m Emani. I’m a lawyer by day and a reader by night. I graduated from law school in May 2021 and passed the bar exam in October 2021. I loved reading when I was younger but stopped reading for fun in undergrad. Last year, I challenged myself to read 50 books but ended up reading 164. Along with that challenge, I created a bookstagram, also called thatbookishlawyer. In 2023, I started a blog to merge my passions and hopefully give helpful advice.
You’ll find book recommendations, bookstagram advice, and law school/ young lawyer advice on my blog. I hope you enjoy it!
