About meI have loved books ever since I have been able to read. And probably I was born knowing how to read.
Besides books, I am also interested in writing, pens, journals, nature, botany, physics and cosmology, cats, and modern Druidry and paganism. I am a student, I keep various journals, and I write poetry.

About my libraryQuality fantasy novels; anything by Ursula K. Le Guin; some science fiction; a selection of classics; poetry, mainly from the 18th century to the present day; Shakespeare; creative writing, particularly the writing of poetry; journal-keeping, including art journals; science, with a focus on astronomy, physics, and cosmology, including books on the history of science, with biographies of scientists and mathematicians being especially enjoyed; modern Druidry, paganism, and related topics; Celtic mythology, culture, and history; cats; field guides; etc.
