I am a Portlandophile. I was born here and revel in my city’s creativity. I am currently reading the first of Portland author Ann Littlewood’s Zoo mystery series, Night Kill. She has a simple, flowing style that keeps me enthralled far into the night. I can smell the animals she describes, and in a good way. Plus there are cats, only they are big and wild.

Great thing is, when I finish this one, there are two more to go: Did Not Survive, and the recently published Endangered.
