WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE ME

I have been an avid reader since I was child. Reading is a passion of mine, and as a result I have become passionate about critically editing and analyzing books. As a college educated woman, I have written for my school newspaper and worked as an editor in addition to working one-on-one with other students on their papers. As evidence from my reviews, I am an honest and critical reader. I will not sugarcoat my thoughts in an effort to provide the most fruitful services.
