About meI spend ridiculous amounts of time reading. I love science fiction and fantasy, a few specific mystery authors, and history (especially pre-renaissance history). That being said, I read pretty much everything.

About my libraryI'm adding books as I read them, not as I acquire them. They're all tagged with the appropriate "borrowed" or "owned" tag if anyone cares about that.

I have two collections that I'm trying to develop:
1) I'd love to own everything Isaac Asimov ever wrote. Yes, all 400+ books. No, I'm not crazy. I think. Ask my husband.
2) Books by readers and writers about the role that reading plays in their lives. For example, Ex Libris by Anne Fadiman.
