I am a youth services librarian who loves books, music, dogs and nature. I read a little bit of everything, but my favorites lately are middle-grade fiction, murder mysteries and nonfiction, and I've always adored exceptionally-illustrated picture books. I'm a murderino, a Ravenclaw and an amateur pie-baker.
