    Wow! What a list… I need to add juvenile fiction to my list of books I'm reading. I think it would benefit me in many ways… as a reader, mom and woman.

    might I recommend The Perfume Collector? It's lovely!

Hi there, I'm Kate! I love yarn, photography, books, and a good cup of coffee. I blog like it's 2007. I write a lot about knitting, Netflix, and any other nonsense that strikes my fancy. Sometimes I get ranty. Welcome to my little corner of the internet!
