About me

Gender Female
Location Southern California
Introduction I'm Kelly, and The Reading Nest is where I write about what moves and excites me: most often books, music, travel, and brooding on the meaning of Home. I'm sarcastic but not snarky, bookish but not boring. Take off your coat and stay awhile.
Favorite Music Radio Paradise (internet radio), Also: Neko Case, Waylon Jennings, The Band, Little Feat, John Hiatt. AM Gold, one-hit wonders, classic rock, classic country, & Sinatra and Dean Martin when I get those yearnings for Palm Springs.
Favorite Books Literary fiction and memoir. I love Annie Dillard, Alice Munro, Mary Karr, Laurie Colwin, Raymond Carver, poets Mary Oliver and Frank O'Hara and too many other names & titles to possibly list.

You can whistle and steam can whistle, so why do you sing in the shower?

To drown out the cries of the children, of course.
