About me

maggie: San Francisco, California, United States; I do childrens' section re-stock buying and story time for an independent bookstore in San Francisco. I also recently completed my MFA in writing from University of San Francisco, and aspire to be a children's writer. I read kid's books. And grown-up books. But I write about the ones for kids here. Because I'm a bookseller, I get some of the books I review here for free, from the publishers. But I don't write about them unless I think they're worth it.
