Ronyea Thompson

I have always loved to read and had a passion for storytelling! With so many literary influences, after playing with characters for a while I finally released my debut novel The Circle in December of 2016!!! (It's still so exciting) I took some time away from reading while working on my book so that I could write from my true voice and not be influenced, but now I am looking to connect with other book lovers and read some amazing books!

In my spare time I enjoy spending quality time with my children: Ryleigh and Robbie, as well as my husband Robert. If I'm not curled up with a good book, I'm rooting for the Oklahoma City Thunder!
