A bit about me

Hi, I'm the keeper of this shelf. I read across romance, romantasy, literary fiction and the occasional thriller — and a little nonfiction when I'm trying to be a better person. I've been known to devour a book in one sitting on a particularly long flight. Most evenings you'll find me in bed with my kindle.

My story

I started keeping a list a few years ago because I kept forgetting what I'd read. The list turned into notes, the notes turned into recommendations friends actually used, and eventually it felt right to put it all somewhere together.

Every entry here is a real book I finished. Ratings are mine and mine only — I'm not trying to be Goodreads. Some are five-star favorites I'd press into your hands; others were merely "fine" but deserved a line anyway.

Thanks for being here. If you want a tiny note in your inbox whenever I add a new one, the subscribe button is right there in the sidebar.
