About the Blogger

Hi! I’m Sarah, and I’m a genderfluid lesbian Ashkenazi Jewish book blogger and writer from Montreal, Canada. I have a BA in English Literature and MFA in Creative Writing. Currently, I’m writing my first novel.

I decided to create this blog to express my love for books, but you will also find lifestyle and writing content.  My blog is pretty much be devoted to books—whether it’s posting reviews, geeking out over my favorite authors, or simply writing about my adventures as I navigate this new chapter of my life. Who knows, I might even post a small excerpt from my novel. We’ll have to wait and see!

Miscellaneous Facts About Me:

  • I love animals, and I have a dog named Simba; he is everything to me
  • I love graphic and web design (I have 12+ years of experience with Adobe Programs and 6+ years of coding)
  • I also love painting and drawing, but I can’t draw for the life of me (I’m significantly better on a tablet, though)
  • Planners, journals, and similar organization tools are my favorite things ever
  • It does not take much for me to say, “this is the best day of my life!” (especially if there is sushi, tacos, or chocolate chip cookies)
  • I’m not religious, but I’m very spiritual; my faith is important to me
  • I’m very passionate about politics and I try to stay as active as possible 
  • When I get off my butt, I like biking, running, and swimming (but seriously, I have to get off my butt first)
  • I have a mild photography and video editing hobby
