This quote by Jorge Luis Borges about libraries feels so true. He was a writer from Argentina and I love that he wrote books and loved books. "I have always imagined that paradise will be a kind of library."

I was recently putting a hold on a book at my own local library and searched up my own books like authors do. I was so excited that not only were my books checked out, there's a wait list for two of them! This totally made my day! Whoo hoo! Yay library readers! #booksky #lovelibraries #cozymystery

I love to see all my covers together - they're just so perfect! I think The Library Attic Attack is my favorite cover but Secrets, Songbirds, and Succulents is my best story so far in my opinion.
