Allison Stadd

Allison started reading at age four and has not put down a book since. The bookstore is her Mecca, the library her paradise, the newsstand her source of addiction. She is currently working as a freelance writer and editorial intern, and loves nothing more than to share her love of all things literary with equally avid members of the reading community.
