about me

Bits About Me:
I've somehow found myself in my mid-30s. The bad part of that is obv. the war against the wrinkles. The good part is that--since my kiddos are growing up too--I have more time to read. I love learning, and I love the English language; reading and writing is a natural extension of those compulsions. I spend my reading time with literary fiction, classics, and nonfiction (with some other stuff thrown in for fun). When I'm not reading I enjoy playing the piano, gardening, quilting, knitting, writing, and otherwise being creative. Looking forward to getting to know you!

Why I Blog:
The effort I put into my blog is worth it for two reasons: it helps me to think through my thoughts and responses to what I read, but mostly it provides the opportunity to connect with others who read.  I love the conversation, so don't be shy!

Review Policy:

UPDATE: Due to a variety of reasons I am currently not accepting books for review.  You are still welcome to email me at fingers.prose at gmail.com but impersonal solicitations and requests are unlikely to get a reply.
