About Us
Jason and Tamara met years ago on Litsy as the aliases MrBook and TheReadingMermaid. They have undertaken several ventures together but this is one of the biggest. Even though they live states away, they remain very good friends.
They realize the common problem of readers feeling isolated. Through their extensive backgrounds in book clubs, they found a solution to this problem and have collaborated to share this wonderful experience with all of you!

Jason is currently a librarian by profession and a former freelance ghostwriter. A member of the National Book Critics Circle, he especially likes to promote reading through the many book clubs he has participated in and organized, from NYC to Pennsylvania and across countries. He is developing several manuscripts, a podcast, and other bookish endeavors. Among his diverse interests, he also enjoys non-mainstream music, whiskey, museums, tater tots, and making new friends. He promotes cats and dogs living together and he thinks grilled cheese and tomato soup is always a winning combination.
