Welcome to the Court of Influencers

I live out in California and support my book buying addiction by working as a construction engineer. I also currently work part time at Barnes & Noble where I enjoy curating display shelves and helping people find their next read. I have a passion for travel and long to return to Scotland (aka run away to and open my own bookstore/coffee shop). I’m addicted to chai tea lattes, my two adorable cats and smutty romances but love fantasy reads like The Night Circus and The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue.

I’m a Southern California girl obsessed with iced coffee, pop punk music, and special edition books. I’m a sucker for paranormal romance, high fantasy, and science fiction stories – the longer the series, the better. When I’m not reading or stuck in LA traffic, you can find me at Disneyland eating all the churros, laughing at Virgo memes, or planning my next camping adventure.

Yes, like the state! I grew up in the Chicago suburbs but now live in Orlando, Florida. I’ve always had a love for reading, but I fell into a bit of a reading slump for a few years when high school took away a lot of my book-devouring time. When I discovered Sarah J. Maas in 2016, though, I fell back in love with reading which led to my discovery of the book community online. It just so happened that around the same time I had gotten involved in cosplaying. Naturally, I wanted to combine my love for both cosplay and reading which has brought me to where I am today: a cosplayer of mostly book characters! Aside from reading and cosplaying, I’m a cat mom to Tootie and Giles, an avid Swiftie (est. 2007), and CM at Walt Disney World!
