About

Hey! Welcome to A Novel Glimpse!

My name is Deanna and I’m from the greater Seattle-Tacoma area. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom, but in my past life I was the Nutrition Services Operations Manager for a local school district.

I created A Novel Glimpse to connect with other book lovers. I’m hoping my reviews will lead people to find books they want to read. I love talking books, so don’t hesitate to contact me if you’re looking for a book recommendation.
