edit data

Sheela lives in a small Michigan town with her husband and children. She has been an avid reader all her life, hoarding books all over her home. She loves being active in the bookish community, sharing her latest reads with everyone on social media. She enjoys camping with her family (which mostly just means reading in the woods) and painting (badly). As a mom to three young boys, she also values extreme amounts of coffee and silence.
