- I've been blogging for ... oh gosh, I started my first blog in October 2003. It was a personal blog, mostly meant to share with my friends & family (and fellow knitters). I kept that up pretty regularly until about 2008, when I went through some pretty crappy relationship stuff, was super depressed, and wanted to keep things more to myself. For a few years after that I kept trying to revive the blog, but couldn't stick to it. Luckily, after Amber & I went to BEA last year, we decided to start up our own BOOK BLOG! And of course, it was perfect for us, and we're obsessed. :)
Oh, and I blog from Connecticut, USA.
- "Book reviews for book lovers." That's our official tagline, I do believe.

And I can read ANYWHERE, believe me, but the above (not sure why I can't paste it down here!) has always made me feel so cozy - love autumn. http://www.pinterest.com/pin/13088655137776533/
- (Actually, this is #6.) I've used 'em all, and honestly I mostly end up using Blogger. I was also a big fan of WordPress, but the one site I had set up with it was great while it lasted, but then I lost all the content (I ran a hosted version on someone else's server). So, that kinda sucked, and (through no fault of WordPress'), kind of left a bad taste in my mouth that I've yet to overcome. Plus, Blogger is just so EASY. (And, I'm pretty sure Google could sell me anything. Anything.)
- I'm currently reading Michelle Knudsen's Evil Librarian, and I think it would make an awesome movie!
