About the Author

Kate Davis is an artist, writer, graphic designer, and avid thrifter. Growing up she could best have been described as "bookish," dreamed of being an author, and couldn't be more thrilled to finally see that dream come true. She's passionate about her garden, her latest hobby (it's hard to say which one is most current), and encouraging people to practice secondhand shopping as a regular part of their lives. She lives in Columbus, Ohio, with her boyfriend and their cadre of cats.

Critical Reviews

"A how-to guide for those new to the pastime and an endearingly rambling love letter to the people, places, and events that helped to nurture her passions for the pursuit." -- Andy Downing, Matter News
