About meObsessive reader, defender of the graphic novel (though I don't do superheroes), A Thomas Hardy over Charles Dickens kinda girl. Hate hate HATE chick lit.
If I could have written any one book it would be Kate Atkinson's Behind The Scenes At The Museum: she continues to astonish with each book.
If I could be any character from lit, it would either be Maggie from Jaime Hernandez' Love and Rockets or Death of the Endless from The Sandman. Or maybe Delirium, she looks fun.

About my libraryPoetry, classics, historical stuff, decent modern literature, lit for kids.

I want to see numbers. Sounds to me like only 68 people voted.
I wouldn't have expected anything else! Nor from Caffi Morgan - gateway to The Stars...

'Wuthering Bites' can only be a matter of time...
Nice Library! Hope there's an old wood-burning stove and rocking chair in the other corner. Was deeply jealous, but, but, but, I've just spent the weekend shifting all the furniture around in our house so we can extend the kitchen, and, when the dust settled I found that my unconscious self had built a library out of all the stuff I'd had to move out of the way! Go figure! Pictures to follow.
BTW, Deeply jealous of library. Send photos so I can slather.
It's a monster! Once you start feeding it, that's it: It Must Be Fed.

As for the aggregate; yes, but are you suprised? The Geekiness of it 1) makes me feel warm inside, and 2) just up's your obscurity statistics!

What's "Ancient Tales and Folklore of Japan" like? Keep meaning to read the Kojiki, but it keeps slipping further and further down my Amazon wishlist.

Wish, basically, and on a daily basis, I was back at Rakushisha...
