About meGothy English Ph.D. student who has a passing familiarity with Latin as well as Russian, a relatively new interest in knitting & crocheting, a lifelong addiction to books, a.k.a. biblioholism (on which, of course, I have a book), and a game-loving economics-Ph.D.-student spouse.

I'm a bit of a completist, or maybe a little obsessive-compulsive, so I've tried to include most of my books on here, and haven't gotten around to reviewing them (nor have I done so on Amazon, for that matter).

Also, I'm a former editor from a small publishing company in Southern California, mostly working on foreign language study products for the retail market.

About my libraryLots of fantasy, speculative fiction, literary fiction (contemporary & classic). Fair amount of history, science, social commentary/criticism, books on cats, feminist thought, literary theory, literary criticism, critical theory, and MBTI, as well as various books on Latin, Russian, Old English, Middle English, French, and Arabic. I've only formally studied the first four, however.

I'm including my husband's contributions to the library on this account, since we have a fair bit of overlap.
