About meI love to read, write, knit, and explore the world.

About my libraryI do many things with my library, but it is mainly a reading journal, as well as a list of my personal collection.

Some of the books here are ones I do not own. I have noted in the comments section if the book is part of my personal or professional collection (all books I own), or otherwise where I got the book I read from.
