Interests
Personal Interests -Like any good Librarian, I love to read. Historical Fiction is my favorite genre, although I do have a soft spot for creative nonfiction as well. I enjoy being outside in warm weather and I adore most animals. When I can't be outside, you'll find me cooking, playing games, watching movies with my family, and generally being obsessed with Lost.

Favorite dessert - fruit pies and cobblers, plus any form of dark chocolate
Favorite movie - Return to Me, Bourne series, Amelie
Favorite state - Arizona/New Mexico
