Welcome to the Deedi Reads newsletter!
I’m so glad you’re here. I’m Deedi, a bibliophile and Instagrammer who's been writing reviews and recommending books for more than eight years. I read more than 100 books every year, spanning genres but mostly falling under hard-hitting literary fiction, fun fantasy & sci-fi, and interesting nonfiction. This (free!) newsletter includes:
Book stacks: Monthly wrap-up and TBRs, semi-annual favorites rankings, anticipated titles, seasonal reading lists, and things like that.
Reading updates: Mid-month progress on what I’ve finished lately, progress on reading projects, and other check-ins.
Life as a bookworm: An inside look at how I read and why, commentary on news from the literary world, and more miscellaneous musings.
About me
I’m a professional content marketer by day and a book reviewer by night (and early morning). Books are my favorite thing in the whole wide world. You'll never find me without one, even when I'm on the treadmill (easier than it sounds, I promise!).
I love talking about books and the bookish life in general, and nothing makes me happier than matching someone up with the perfect recommendation. My review blog is filled with 8+ years’ worth of spoiler-free book reviews and recommendations
I also run a monthly book club dedicated to the Booker Prize called Booker of the Month, and you’ll hear me talk about how awesome indie bookstores are all the time.
Some fun facts about me:
I currently work as head of content at Bubble.
I was raised and live in Central New York, about 4 hours from NYC (but I lived in NYC for 6.5 years!)
I love to dance and run. I grew up in a dance studio and still take weekly ballet classes. I’ve also run three half-marathons and hope to run many more!
My couch is my happy place — if you don’t count my hot tub. And the Adirondacks.
My favorite way to read a book is to listen to the audiobook as I read along in print.
Let’s be friends.
