I really like this photo...having a "bookworm" daughter as well I can
relate! I bet she was so engrossed with the book that she even didn't notice
you taking the picture...or is she so used to being a subject she doesn't
flinch anymore?

You did a great job of balancing the outside light against the interior.
Often framing a subject against a window makes for a challenging exposure. I
suspect the outside light was diffused enough, and the window large enough
to make the balancing easier.
