About Me

I’m Robin, a romance bookseller and book creator based in New England. With several years in bookselling and hundreds of books between, this blog is a space for the pivotal books I’ve read (the one’s I have made a not so insignificant part of my identity). I’ve always had a passion for reading and writing so this is where my musings on my favorite books—the books I would sell my soul to read for the first time again, and all the rest of my latest obsessions can be found.
