About Melissa_WI'm the reader-moderator for the "Literature by Women" and "Knitting" book clubs here at BNBC. I spend my weekdays as a research hospital epidemiologist at UIHC. I also work as a Barnes and Noble Bookseller to support my book habit. I spend a lot of my spare, non-reading time taking ballet classes or knitting. My two very spoiled fur-babies are Chaucer and Dante and I'm also the Northern District Counselor for Alpha Chi Sigma Chemistry Fraternity. Visit my blog at balletbookworm.blogspot.com.
