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 quite suited her. So she made her own. And she lived happily ever after.
THE FOUNDER
When EVANGELINE MCMULLEN was nine years old, she invited her friends to a sleepover. After everyone had arrived, she handed each girl a book and settled herself down for a good read. That's the last slumber party she remembers hosting. Now all grown up, she still doles out books from her thousands-strong personal library, but she does the bulk of her sharing online instead. Copy editor by day, book blogger by night, she lives in Chicago with her similarly lit-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 also manages to write for Booklicious implies she's probably also got Hermione's time turner stashed away.

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.
