about me

I'm Sarah, and I’m in the midst of a 40-something year long love affair with books. It’s a habit instilled in me by my parents’ gift of nightly bedtime stories, and crystallised by library visits, book-swaps, and some truly gifted authors. I’m not all about the books … my life is ruled by a supremely strong-minded cat called Grace. Like books, cats have been a lifelong fixation … albeit they are somewhat more difficult to keep on shelves.
