About meI am a burned-out paramedic turned bookseller. I love playing outdoors.

About my libraryMost of these are our copies and on our shelves, however, I'm using LT for tracking all kinds of books that pass through our daily lives: books given as [gift]s, advance reading copies [arc] read and [returned] to the bookstore, [borrowed] books either read and returned or to be read, books [loaned] out, and books read once upon a time that I'd like to add to my library [obtain?]. Many of these books (most of the [fantasy] and all of the [appaloosa]) belong to my partner, [herb].
