THE BLOG
Once upon a time, a girl was having trouble fulfilling her book craving. She wanted a site that would cover everything from cool new releases to awesome bookcases to pretty covers. But she couldn't find one that suited her. So she made her own. And she lived happily ever after.
THE FOUNDER
By the time she entered her teens, EVANGELINE MCMULLEN had amassed more than 2,000 books. A transatlantic move from Scotland to the United States reduced her collection but not her mania. Magazine editor by day, book blogger by night, she lives in Chicago with her similarly book-addicted husband.
THE CONTRIBUTORS
SARAH MILNER has a secret. It's not that she's an unabashed Austen fan. It's not that she ranks her iPhone as one of the five most important things in her life. It's that as a mother, a wife, an employee, and double-majoring undergrad, she's likely hiding a Superwoman cape in her closet. That she manages to write for Booklicious, too, implies she's probably also got Hermione's time turner stashed away.
KAREN PARKINSON is a woman of many talents. She studied physics at the University of Illinois, during which time she made diamonds for superconductors, making your undergrad career look like four years of underwater basket weaving. She spent the last year working in Ecuador for nonprofit organization Rostro de Cristo, cuddling orphans and eating pigeons. She will be studying public policy this fall at the University of Wisconsin.

One could argue that MICHAEL NUHN'S isolated rural upbringing was the force behind his early literary bent. But the more likely reason is that as the son of a principal and a librarian, he didn't stand a chance. Wee Michael's future path was destined to follow the curve of those school-library stacks, a path that would lead to an English degree, a book-loving wife and a job as a big-city copywriter. What comes next? Only Dewey knows.
