Welcome to #FDL’s feature column, Five Questions, where we ask library staff and other East Peoria residents roughly the same five questions. For our next Five Questions column, we’re interviewing Sharon Crawford, one of FDL’s youth services specialists.

1. Who are you?

I’m Sharon Crawford and I work in the Youth Services department.

2. What is your favorite part of working at FDL?

I like the people that I work with. I look forward to seeing the kids that I see all the time, especially at the story times I do.

3. What are you reading/watching/listening to right now?

I’m reading Scythe by Neal Shusterman. I am a reality show junkie and I’m watching Married at First Sight and Married at First Sight: Second Chances, Naked and Afraid XL, American Ninja Warrior, Brother vs. Brother, and Nashville. For listening, just the radio right now.

4. If you didn’t already have your dream job, what would you be doing?

If I had to work, I would want to work in a school, but not a teacher. If I didn’t have to work, I would be enjoying time with my grandsons.

5. If you could only watch one reality television program ever for the rest of your life, what would it be?

Sharon: Can’t I have one per season? Survivor is on in the fall, but Big Brother is on in the summer.

Carey: No.

Sharon: If I *have* to pick one, it would be Survivor because Big Brother gets really stupid sometimes.
