Above all things, I love to read books and talk about them. Which is why I've created this space to share the books I'm reading and get feedback and suggestions from you. 

I also write stories from time to time, so every once in awhile I'll put something up for you to read. 

If you have a book you'd like me to read and review, please fill out the form below. I'm always looking for my next great read!

Favorite genres and themes: Speculative Fiction, including Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Magical Realism, and Horror. Gothic Fiction and really good Historical Fiction. Books about writing, and the occasional Memoir. Oh, and I have a soft spot in my heart for Middle Reader Fiction.
