About Me
I read. A lot. Mostly whatever YA novels the library has on hold for me that week. Sometimes grown-up books if my book club makes me.

I couldn’t resist buying Lament, either, especially once I’d found out that Tamora Pierce is a fan.

Nice mailbox. I’ve read Struck, which I really liked even though the cult-like stuff was oddball and creepy. The worldbuilding was pretty amazing. I finished Of Poseidon today. It was fun and reminded me of the Paranormalcy books only in that it was quick, easy, and breezy and lots of FUN. Monstrous Beauty was AMAZING and complex and beautiful – truly something special. I hope you love it half as much as I did.
