About Me

My photo
Lindy
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
I read over 250 books a year. (No TV, not much of a social life. Just books.) I like all formats and most genres. I read (and listen to) novels for adults, teens and children and I like nonfiction too. Books by women, queers, and Canadians get extra attention. Look for my reading list on Goodreads.
