I’ve been a teacher for the better part of twenty years, a book blogger, and a contributing editor at Book Riot. I love to read across genres, but the books that ground me are cozy, low-drama stories with quick-moving plots.

In the summer of 2025, I went through one of my biggest reading slumps of my life — so I ended up doing what the old adage suggests: I wrote the book I wanted to read.

This was ok. I guessed part of it, though not the whammy at the very, very end. But it wasn’t super satisfying for what I wanted it to be. I didn’t feel glued to the page as much as I thought I would.
