Hello and Welcome!

Red House Books is going through a bit of a update!

I've always had a pretty clear vision of what I wanted this space to be but I've been detoured from my path by...lots and lost of other people's opinions and ways of doing things...

I'm committed to this little chunk of the interweb but I've also branched out into other places so! Now it's time to think of Red House Books as more of a hub of all things me! And Me is a hell of a lot of book love!

Stay tuned!

  2. Happy early birthday!! The bracelet is freaking awesome and your mom and sister are genius.

    Way to go with your mad editing skills. You're quite the talented lady. Enjoy all the books you bought and continue to touch Wildefire. I love how we both discuss the book's softness.

    And Will Grayson, Will Grayson is amazeballs! I called it my feel-good book of the year when I read it, so I hope you love it.
