About Me

Hi, I’m Taylor!

I’m from Seattle, but currently live in Austin, TX. (Bring on the taco trucks & sunshine!)

I owned an online bookshop for years, and now I run this book blog & do freelance digital marketing. I’ve been part of the Bookstagram community for over 5 years, and I am all about sharing a passion for books and reading!

When I’m not working, you can usually find me curled up with a book and a cup of iced coffee. I’m also a big fan of dogs, chocolate, and ridiculous dance moves.
