About meHello, my name is Liam. I am a compulsive hoarder/serial borrower/reader of books.

About my libraryMy library includes books I have read or am currently reading, some of which I own and sit on my shelves attracting silverfish; others I have borrowed from a public library, friend or family member.

I have another account which functions as a sort of reminder of books I feel I should eventually get around to acquiring and/or reading. (Most of it's on my Amazon Wish List.)
