About meI need a more up-to-date self-description, but I've no idea what the hell to write here at the moment. I was born in 1987. Any other information I might provide right now can probably be inferred from the above lists and my library itself.

About my libraryI only list books that I have read at least part of, so my (shamefully massive) to-read pile is not included here. Books that I acquired long ago, which includes much of the SFF and some other things, are incompletely represented, because many of them are in a storage unit to which I currently have no access.

I regret rating anything, and if the Power Edit function allowed me to remove ratings en masse I would do so. My tagging system is inconsistent because I can't be bothered to redo my old tags.
