Kristen has been an avid reader for as long as she can remember and has been blogging about fantasy and science fiction books since 2007.

In addition to hosting her reviews and other book coverage, her website has celebrated Women in SF&F Month every April since 2012, an event that has featured more than 200 guest posts by women in SFF over the years. She lives in Vermont with her husband and several (yet somehow never enough) bookshelves.
