Since visiting Corfe Castle (the inspo for Kirren), I’ve been to Anne’s Green Gables, cried over Beth in Louisa May Alcott’s house, said hello to Paddington, Peter Pan, and Sherlock in London…

Have you ever thought, “I just want to jump into this book!” Same.
For me, it started with The Famous Five. I wanted to join them at Kirren Castle.
I’m Elizabeth, a whimsical librarian that loves to find real world ways to step into books!

Look, I’m never going to tell you books aren’t political, but I’m just interrupting your doom scrolling to remind you there are corners of the internet where we indulge in whimsy still.
Sub to my blog/YT/socials if you just want to climb into the nearest book. 📚

I love coming face to face IRL with characters who lit up my childhood through pages.
The statues of Paddington Bear, Peter Pan (two actually!), and Sherlock Holmes are one of the reasons I love visiting London. And did you know you can find Ramona Quimby in Portland, OR and Alice in NYC?

Just some of the posts on my blog covering topics I never dreamed would become politically problematic 🤔
It turns out that a well read woman IS a dangerous creature and travel IS fatal to prejudice.

I’ve lived in Alaska my whole life, and I’ve never actually read John Muir’s Travels in Alaska, other than the short section about Juneau. I just downloaded the kindle version from Project Gutenberg the other day so I’m finally going to read the full book.

Do you use AI to help you write?
I don’t, but when my husband asked ChatGPT to write a bio for my blog it spit out one sentence I particularly liked: “…offering her audiences immersive experiences that bridge the gap between fiction and reality.”
Thanks AI, I guess that is what I’m doing!

A1: The most literary city I’ve visited? London. You can find Paddington, Peter Pan, Sherlock, and a few other characters in the city as well as visit Dickens’ home, and walk by tons of other author homes.
