Fall 2017 TV Shows to Look Out For

Hey Bookworms!

For those of you who don’t know, I am a HUGE TV binge watcher. TV watching is one of my favorite past times aside from reading of course. I usually watch close to 15 shows a season! I like anything from fantasy/sci-fi to dramas, comedies to cop shows and everything in between.

With the new fall season coming up I thought it would be fun to highlight 5 NEW shows that I am most excited for. Of course there are a lot of returning shows I am anticipating too, but you can check out my blog for a post about them coming soon!
