About My Library
As I only have room for 200 books, I decided to theme this library around literature. I have included all of my literary criticism, poetry, and drama; most of my literary non-fiction; and all of my books on writing that are actually useful. I have also included most of my fiction, with the exception of multiple copies or translations and the subsequent books in all but my favorite series. Also, for authors where I have an ton of their books, I've gone with my absolute favorites.

I have had to exclude many of my children's books, humor (including my large collection of Garfield comics), text books, and non-fiction books on such subjects as film theory, anthropology/sociology, music, art/museum collections, history, travel, religion/mythology, philosophy/cultural theory, and science.
About Me
I'm working on an MA/PhD in film studies, though I have an MFA in screenwriting and studied literature and creative writing as an undergrad.

I'll read pretty much anything as long as it interests me and is reasonably well-written.
