Eliza Graham spent Biology lessons reading Jean Plaidy novels behind the text books, sitting at the back of the classroom. In English and History lessons she sat right at the front, hanging on to every word. At home she read books while getting dressed and cleaning her teeth. During school holidays she visited the public library multiple times a day.At Oxford University she read English Literature on a course that regarded anything post about 1930 as too modern to be included. She retains a love of Victorian novels.Eliza lives in the Oxfordshire countryside with her family in an ancient village. Her interests (still) mainly revolve around reading, but she also enjoys walking in the downland country around her home.Her first novel, Playing with the Moon, was longlisted for Richard & Judy's Summer Read and World Book Day's Book to Talk About in 2007.
