About meWith degrees in literature and science and a life-long passion for history, there's not a lot I don't enjoy reading. In reading as in television, however, I do tend to avoid the network stations and stick to BBC/PBS.

About my libraryHeavy on classics/literature, history, science, and mystery, because I like books that challenge me to think, learn, and grow.
