About my libraryMy bookshelf consists predominantly of Tolkien and other fantasy, but from time to time some random books about something else tend to find their way to my shelves too.

There are many, many books in my collection that I haven't read yet. Only a few of them are in the "to read" category. Not because I wouldn't intend to read the rest, but the few I've picked are probably more or less in the front of the line.
