Description

Today, we're setting up Sarah Cady. Sarah is a nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopist at a university, who also is a partial owner of a plant store. She recently read and loved The Good Daughter by Karin Slaughter and The Ten Thousand Doors of January by Alix Harrow. She’s a big fan of farmers market shopping on a Saturday morning, and ending the day with grilling and beers on the porch at home. She’s a gemini who likes Classic books and could give an on the spot ted talk about superconducting magnets or grief. She’s impressed by people who remember to send thank you notes, and loves both the Colin Firth and Matthew MacFadyen P&P. A quote from her survey is that “there is just something so comforting to me about Regency era lady problems.”
