Sarah-Daye grew up immersed in the magic of storytelling, spending countless hours reading and watching movies with her family. Her love for stories extended beyond the page and screen—she eagerly attended book release parties and midnight movie premieres. At one such event, she even won a costume contest, earning the very first copy of a highly anticipated book as her prize.

With a degree in Communications and Sociology from Christopher Newport University, Sarah-Daye brings a unique blend of analytical insight and heartfelt enthusiasm to her work as the host of Book Watch. Whether analyzing a beloved classic or dissecting the latest blockbuster adaptation, she’s passionate about exploring what makes stories resonate across mediums.

When she is not podcasting, reading, or watching the latest adaptations, you’ll find her completing a puzzle with her husband, working on their 1959 fixer upper, playing a board game, or exploring the world through the eyes of her girls.

For Sarah-Daye, every adaptation is a new adventure, and she’s here to share it with fellow book and movie enthusiasts.
