Ruth went to Oxford Literary Festival and met her literary hero.
Ruth spent most of her childhood lugging home the maximum number of books allowed on her library card, devouring them all within days and then reading them over and over until the next trip could be made. After several years in the city working as a law librarian she's now a stay at home mum, a proud member of her local WI, and is dabbling in a bit of story writing herself. She delights in building large 'to read' piles all around the house (much to her husband's distress), and reviewing for The Bookbag makes her very, very happy! Check out her favourite books.
