Beautiful art by Cat Seto via The House That Lars Built

Michelle read this audiobook (at 1.5x speed — she’s pretty slow!) and while nothing all that controversial was revealed, she’s still an inspiration to me. #25wordbookreview

About Me

I’m Victoria Griffith and I am enthusiastic about a LOT of things. Pine trees and mushrooms and the desert. Mountains and motorcycles, travel and photography. Friendship and writing and books and surviving the love of your life’s terminal diagnosis.


I read constantly, think about reading obsessively, and have strong opinions about what makes a great memoir. I write about books here, and I’m working on one of my own.

I was born in Paterson, NJ, call Seattle home, and spend winters in the desert of Southern California, where the light is different and the ocotillos are doing something extraordinary. I try to get out and see as much of the world as time and money will allow.

If you’d like to say hi, you can reach me at vgriff@vgriff.com.
