Hello, I’m Lori, and welcome to my little haven in the vast literary world—Lori’s Book Loft. Here, I have the extraordinary privilege of connecting with readers from over 60 countries, while also engaging regularly with marketing specialists, authors, and subject matter experts. Every conversation, every connection, reminds me of the power of stories to bring people together.

My own reading journey has wandered across countless genres, yet I hold a special affection for debut novels. There’s something endlessly enchanting about discovering a fresh voice, stepping into a story for the very first time, and experiencing that sense of wonder and discovery that never grows old. I also adore antique books—their worn spines, delicate pages, and quiet history make every reading experience feel like a small voyage through time. Each book carries not just a story, but echoes of the hands and minds that cherished it before me.
Before this blog became my home, I spent years immersed in books as a library supervisor and freelancing for a publisher. Literature has been more than a career or a hobby—it’s been a constant companion. To me, a book is never “just” paper and ink. It’s a doorway to another world, a thrilling adventure, or a quiet teacher revealing new truths. It’s the sensation of turning pages, the exhilaration of a scene that sears itself into memory, the elegance of a perfectly crafted sentence that makes your heart skip a beat. I’ve met characters I adore, worlds I wish I could live in, and yet I remain determined on one quirky quest: to prove, definitively, that I have no doppelgänger.
I believe deeply that everyone deserves access to quality literature, and I feel profoundly grateful for the opportunity to review books and interview authors. Reviews, to me, are not just a guide for readers—they’re a way to help stories find the hearts and minds that need them most. I hope that my insights save you time, enrich your reading experience, and perhaps even introduce you to something unexpected and wonderful.
Thank you for stopping by. I hope you enjoy exploring Lori’s Book Loft, find inspiration here, and, above all, discover your next unforgettable read.
