About meI am 21 years old, and I work full time and go to school full time as an Accounting major. I am interested in all types of fiction, but I am especially drawn to Dystopian Literature and contemporary classics. Not much to tell about me; I'm just a simple Book Nerd. DFTBA.
About my libraryI own all of the books in my library and am working on reading them all before I buy any more.
Also, I'm trying to write reviews over every book I've read and own-- a trivial goal, but a goal, nonetheless. Most of the reviews I write are simple and to the point and are written mainly for me so that I will remember what I thought of the book.
How my rating system works:
I use the same rating system here as I use on Netflix:
5 Stars: Loved it!
4 Stars: Really liked it.
3 Stars: Liked it.
2 Stars: Didn't like it.
1 Star: Hated it.
Just a Note: I'm fairly easy to please, so there are a lot of 4 and 5 star ratings.

If I may offer you some unsolicited advice, you simply must read Less Than Zero and American Psycho (if you can stomach its misogynistic violence) BEFORE you read Lunar Park. Glamorama and The Informers don't really play much into the plot of Lunar Park as much as the other two. We have similar tastes, though I must say you are much prettier than I am. Sigh.

I have been to the Book Jungle before. I think it is so small and unassuming that I forget about it sometimes. They do have a great selection, for sure.
