Sorry I've been away for so long, everyone. I'll do my best to post more often. Happy New Year!

About me:
I am an open minded young woman. Like everyone, I have a past. I use writing as an outlet of emotions. My favorite pastimes are reading a nice book or writing something, anything *they tend to take you away from your troubles*. Being from the Balkans and having survived the horror of the 90s there, I use a pen and paper to deal with my days and the war's aftermath.
My claim to fame: I'm an animal rights activist. I am loud when I need to be.

What I like to read:

Fiction: Coming of Age, Gay/Lesbian, Historical Fiction, Humor/Satire, Literary, Military/Espionage, Multicultural, Political, Women's Fiction

Non-Fiction: Body, Mind & Spirit, Gay/Lesbian, History, Humor, Memoir/Narrative Non-fiction, Outdoors & Nature, Pets, Politics & Current Affairs, Psychology, Reference, Women's Studies

Favorite place to read:
There is this place near Montrose Harbor with a lot of big rocks. It's very calming, just the sound of waves hitting the rocks and a good read.
But when it's cold in Chicago, I love to snuggle in a blanket with my soy chai and a good read.
