Who am I?

Hello, hello! My name is Kristina. I am a recent college grad from the Midwest. By weekday, I’m an organic environmental chemist (in other words, I test and evaluate soil and water samples in a lab setting). By weekend, I’m a bookseller/barista at a joint independent bookstore/coffee shop. And by night, I’m a chronic reader and book blogger. I’m usually joined in my escapades by my 2-year-old goldendoodle puppy Peggy (she’s the real star of the blog, let’s be real). You can find me on Instagram, Goodreads, Fable, Pinterest, and Spotify. Be sure to drop your email below to stay up to date on all the latest Review & Recap posts from the blog. And no, I won’t be telling you my favorite book because it changes daily.

My reading taste tends to travel all across the board (fantasy, romance, contemporary, mystery, classics, a splash of non-fiction). If you like to yap about books, we’re gonna be best friends. I hope this blog can be a resource for anyone to explore new books, review a recap on something you’ve already read, or just have someone to get excited with you over a massive cliffhanger. Peggy and I are on the case.

I like…

Playing the piano. Making lists. Dark chocolate. Vinyls and CDs. Cozy movie days while it’s raining.
