Thanks for visiting my blog! Confession time right from the beginning…I have an obsession with books. I read constantly – typically I’m reading at least a book or two at once and listening to a few others. I have always loved reading and writing and someday, my goal is to publish one of the many, many stories that live only in my head right now.

In the meantime, I plan to use this site to write reviews, make recommendations, chat books, make links to current events, etc. Several conversations with my friends and coworkers each week start with “Have you read the one about…?” or “Have you read the new book by….?” so I’m hoping that this page gives me a place to share. I’ve been thinking about doing a blog again for a LONG time and I’m very excited to start writing again on a consistent basis.

When I occasionally take a break from reading I teach college level writing and Women’s Studies courses, review books for AudioFile Magazine and work as an Event Host at the fabulous Bank Square Books and Savoy Bookshop & Cafe. In other words, even when I am not reading I am surrounded by authors, students, fellow readers and book lovers. Am I lucky or what?

Recommendations for books? Ideas for something to check out or a great discussion topic? Send them my way. I’d love to hear from you. Thanks!
