Books and reading have always been an important part of my life. When I was very young, my grandma was the library director at our local public library. Years later, after she had retired, I became a librarian at the same library and worked there for several years before taking a part-time job at a local coffee shop, which gives me more time to do what I love, to read and to review books! A few of my favorite authors are Aimee Bender, Diane Chamberlain, and Curtis Sittenfeld however, I will read almost any book I come across! In my spare time you can find me reading (of course), volunteering at a wildlife animal rehab, or hanging out with my three house rabbits.

Women in America and worldwide have had to work very hard for lots of things in life: the right to vote, the right to work outside of the home, the list goes on. And we are still, after all of these y…
I’ve found lately that books that involve big, mysterious houses are definitely ones I want to be reading. Bonus points if there are enough descriptive details that I can envision the mansion easily. …
If you’re a book lover like me, I’m sure you’ve come across books that you wish would never end. I felt that way with Bittersweet in the Hollow, and lucky for me it looks like there’s a sequel in…
As a young teen, I was elated when I discovered DuPrau's first book, The City of Ember. Growing up, my parents were very careful about what their children were allowed to read, so I often had a diffic…
I remember about 13 years ago when Ally Condie’s first big book was released and I was ecstatic. Matched, the beginning of a dystopian trilogy, was all the rage and I was there for it. Since then, she…
In recent years, Margaret Atwood’s classic The Handmaid’s Tale has gained popularity among readers and was adapted to a TV series, which only helped it become more well known. I’ve always loved a good…
It took me a second to get into Just Do This One Thing for Me. Once I really got acquainted with the plot and characters though, I enjoyed it a lot. This isn’t your typical suspense novel, though…
