—The Reading Wench
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Manda Collins spent her teen years wishing she’d been born a couple of centuries earlier, preferably in the English countryside. Time travel being what it is, she resigned herself to life with electricity and indoor plumbing, and read lots of books. When she’s not writing, she’s helping other people use books, as an academic librarian. Visit www.mandacollins.com to learn more, or sign up for email updates here.
