The thing about being a book lover is that I really, really, REALLY love books, and by extension, I really, really, REALLY appreciate their creators. The authors are the amazing people who spend their time and energy creating worlds for us to enjoy, wherein we can be immersed in thoughts and ideas that both entertain and engage. Therefore, having a message in a book that I really enjoyed made out to me is an exciting event. Thank you, Elan Mastai for the kind inscription! And, again, I recommend that you read his book All Our Wrong Todays. #elanmastai #allourwrongtodays #canadianlit #canadianauthor #novel #inscriptions #booksigning #readersofinstagram #reading #reader #booklovers #booklover #books #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bibliophile #author #kalidesautelsreads

Originally intended to simply focus on book reviews, over time, KaliDesautelsReads has morphed into its own entity.
I write about issues that are near to my heart, be they political, feminist, motherhood, mental health, or, as the title holds, books.
A thirty-something Canadian woman in my mid-thirties, I have been "super married" to my high school sweetheart since 2006, and together we have two crazy, clever, kind, hilarious, wonderful kids.
My first book - How Not To Blog: Finding Myself, One Post at a Time is available on Amazon (in eBook formats for you clever tech readers, and paperback for those of us who love that new book smell!)
I have tried a podcast - it's still on Apple and Google Podcasts - but writing is where my heart is.
My life changed dramatically when my husband was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer in 2018, and I am now a writer for a leading Canadian Cancer Non-Profit.
I am lucky enough to have a family that loves me and pushes me to be my best, even if it is outside of my cushiony comfort zone. I have a village of friends that nourish me, mentally, and spiritually.
Welcome to my thoughts. Sit down. Stay a while. Enjoy a cup of coffee!
