About meFirst of all, I have chosen to look like Edith Wharton on LibraryThing because she is very pretty and I LOVED The House of Mirth. So heartbreaking. I majored in English and Women's Studies during undergrad and I'm currently studying Library Science and working in a library. I love spending time with friends, being a city girl, reading, singing, classic films, and swimming in natural bodies of water. I'd love to meet cool people on here to talk books with!

About my libraryI am doing a project on LibraryThing, so the current library just involves the books that are on the top bookshelf of my desk in my dorm. I've already read a couple, but most are books that I am either currently reading or waiting until I have more time to read. If you want to know about any other books I read, just ask.
