I love to read! Some of my favorite books are The Book Thief, The No.
One Ladies Detective Agency series and The Absolutely True Confessions
of a Part-Time Indian. A couple of my favorite movies are Spellbound and
Children of Heaven and I have a great 80’s station on Pandora. I am a bit of a “Gleek”, but that’s all I watch; I’d much rather read or play games with my son, Sky, who is in the fourth grade, and my husband, who I met way back in middle school. We have three cats, two dogs, a very scary-looking pet spider named Princess, and a few fish.
