Oh, the places you will go (with a good book)!

"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go." - Dr. Seuss
Welcome to my literary world of wonder!
I have always found comfort in a good book, the feel and smell of the pages as I turn them, engrossed in a tale woven by a complete stranger. 

Well written books (of any genre, really) can transport you to a new place and teach you things about not only yourself but the world around you... And that is what I love about reading: the expansion of my horizons, of going on an adventure from the comfort of my own home. 

Who am I?
My name is Kaleena, and I'm a thirty-something California girl who unwinds by reading. Recently I found a great pleasure in writing reviews on Goodreads (I think it taps into my Liberal Arts training for writing papers), and I thought that I would venture out into the World of the Internet to share my thoughts. 

What will you find here?
My goal is to post once per week and to start they will likely be reviews, lists, or recommendations. I plan to expand post content as my blog grows.

How about genres? 
I read a wide array of book types, but my favorite are Literary fiction, philosophy, historical fiction, science fiction, and fantasy. I particularly enjoy novels that delve into themes that examine human nature in some way, particularly through a philosophical or religious lens.
