I’m Emily. 20. Cat-cuddler. Coffee addict. Designer. Author lover. Ravenpuff. Total fangirl. College student. And of course, book obsessed!
A few more things…
- I’m a graphic designer attending RISD.
- I am working as a design intern at Penguin Random House in Summer 2019!
- I have a cat, Clary, named after the Clary Fray from The Mortal Instruments series.
- I’m not just book obsessed — I love some good TV!
- I was born in the summer, and hence it’s my favorite season.
- I’m an only child, but between my cat and my books, I’m never lonely!

Books & Cleverness was established in February of 2014. It is named after the Harry Potter quote:
“Books! And cleverness! There are more important things – friendship and bravery and – oh Harry – be careful!”
I started the blog to share my love for, and thoughts about, mostly YA literature. You can expect the usual book blog posts, but filled with my fangirling personality! My reviews range from super formal to super not, always dependent on my level of feels for the book.
Still want to know more? I’d love to be friends! Start up a conversation with me in the comments, or on Twitter!
