About me I'm awesome.

About my library I spent years reading scholarly, intellectual fare. Nowadays it's mostly escapism for me, I'll admit, but I'm trying to even things out a bit. I don't really believe in "highbrow" and "lowbrow" anyway.

As for why my collection is so (comparatively) small--I have excuses. For one thing, I'm pretty young and haven't had the time yet in life to accumulate as much as some people. Secondly, I've moved a good deal recently, which has caused me to leave some books behind (sniff).

Enjoying your library and the words you have to say about many of the books. Thanks!
i recommend not wasting your time on "Purity of Blood", the next book in the Captain Alatriste series. It doesn't hold up to the first one.
Hiya! I searched for all the accounts in your city and as I recall I hesitated slightly over MarquesadeFlambe as kinda your style. Had I hesitated long enough to read the profile, I'd've known!

You share no books with MarquesadeFlambe.
Strangely enough...
