About Me

Hello and welcome to my blog! My name is Saralisa, and I am a 27-year-old bookaholic. I love animals of all shapes and sizes, the colors purple and blue, and I can crochet most anything, too. If there’s one thing I love more than reading books, it’s discussing books! That’s why I decided to start a book club in my home town in Nebraska. It’s been running successfully since 2015, so I must be doing something right!
