About meI am a public services librarian at the Capital Area District Library in Lansing. I'm half of the collection development team for adult fiction at my branch, which means that if I'm not working or sleeping, I'm reading. My reading mostly consists of literary fiction, graphic novels, historical fiction, and mysteries, roughly in that order

About my libraryI rarely buy books. I use LibraryThing to keep tabs on what I've read, and notes for the sake of book recommendations. Anything that gets fewer than 3 stars doesn't get a review. It is my job to recommend books, not to critique them. As a result, my reviews are overwhelmingly positive. Many of my reviews are posted on CADL's website at http://www.cadl.org/books-movies, or on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=C8434EA4650436CC&
