I am a performer by trade and have been an avid reader for as long as I can remember. My bookshelves are full of many genres but I have a love of fantasy, SciFi and steampunk which have only spurred my performing dreams to help one of these fabulous worlds come to life. I tend to read books with a lot of edge and grit; if it's got zombies, space battles or fantastical steam inventions, I'm in. When I'm not reading or off making my own adventures, I can be caught watching movies of every era, gaming, and being scandalously political like any good steampunk heroine.

Ok, let’s just throw it out there. Not all books are diverse and many are one-dimensional about the type of people they are written about. Sure this annoys me because it doesn’t reflect the society I live in. That being said, I can oftentimes overlook this because not every place […]
