A California girl at heart, Sarah has lived in Indiana, New York and spent quite a few summers living in Maine as well. Despite growing up in the middle of nowhere, (a podunk farm town you've never heard of) this small town girl had an eye for travel very early in life. Graduating from an all women's college in the heart of the Midwest, Sarah earned her B.A. in History and Anthropology at Saint Mary's College, moved to New York City and found herself spending a lot of time with Patience and Fortitude leading to a passion in Children's Literature. After moving back to California, she went on to earn her Masters in Library and Information Science at San Jose State and worked her way from being a volunteer to running the children's room at the local library. Besides doing bookish things, Sarah is a writer, book reviewer and contributor to several blogs and runs way too many social media accounts. When she's not reading or writing, you can find her at the newest restaurant in town, spending an entire paycheck on serums and moisturizers, listening to podcasts, watching The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel on repeat and living with her two adopted cats, Pepper and Minnie.
