Hello,

I’m Shantall

Welcome to Hobbies Over Coffee! My name is Shantall and I have been in love with storytelling, in all forms, since childhood. My mother instilled a love of reading into me at a young age and since then I have voraciously consumed stories in the form of novels, film, and video games.

Join me as I explore stories in all forms and engage in conversation with you about it.

A vampire that has given up drinking human blood. His familiar, a cat, trying to do magic on her own. A well deserved getway to an Italian seaside town. But whats that? A body on the beach and all signs point to a vampire killing them, and as a town that does not have any vampire residents, all fingers point to the vacationing one. Hijinks ensue as he and his familiar try to clear his name.⁣ Having been stung by wasps in the past, and the trauma of the movie My Girl forever scarring me, I was looking forward to this horror story. Especially when the book is described as “Jaws with wasps” so I did not hesitate to pick this up. ⁣ A witching society living among us around the world. People living with magic in them, unknowingly, who can snap at any moment. Los Angeles being the ground where a war, between witches who are born into this world and those who aren’t, occurs. Enemies to lovers. Friends who are always there for you.⁣ A good cup of coffee from @cafecitolounge, a good book, some beautiful weather. Great start to the weekend. ⁣ 𝕽𝖎𝖌𝖍𝖙 𝖋𝖔𝖔𝖙 𝖎𝖓 𝖙𝖍𝖊 𝖗𝖔𝖘𝖊𝖘⁣ New England ✅⁣ #hobbiesovercoffee #sanfrancisco #oceanbeach #sandart #bayarea ⁣ “Walking the stacks in a library, dragging your fingers across the spines - it’s hard not to feel the presence of sleeping spirits.” ⁣
