Kat - an observation, not a criticism as it may well be by design.

Your site looks nice and works fine but does have an inconsistency of typeface across the pages that I couldn't really understand. It may be that that is by design but it made it harder to read from my point of view. I found it hard to work out why some bits were in some fonts and others in different ones; and I couldn't see what was the consistency and relevance of italics - in some places it seemed to be to makes contrasts and other bits didn't. It's a small point and may not matter but type between pages (and consistency of headings and style etc) does aid comprehension and readability. At least it shouldn't raise questions in the readers mind like 'I wonder why this page is in a different type face - am I missing something' which gets in the way.
