I'm an author, librarian, and book reviewer living in Saskatoon, Canada. My debut novel "The Ghosts of Thorwald Place" was published October 2021 by CamCat Books, and "Phantom" was released in October 2023.

I publish book reviews here, on Instagram, Amazon.ca, and on my PowerLibrarian website. If you want to submit a request for a book review, please read my book review policy and reach out to me through that website.
