About My Library

Am a Public Services Librarian, so my life revolves around books of all genres and ages, though I do have my preferences (see below). I fully embrace the dorkiness that my job entails, and am always up for some chatter on books, comics, movies, or other pop culture. Or history or science! I’m a well-rounded geekling with interest in quite a lot.

Online, I'm active on both GR and LT, but for different reasons. My LibraryThing is cataloging my personal library (hard copy at least), while my GoodReads is more about the reviews and includes my Kindle and library checkouts as well.


Favorite genres:

  • J & YA Fantasy
  • Urban Fantasy
  • Fractured/Reinterpreted Fairy Tales
  • Reinterpreted Classics
  • Mysteries - Golden Age, Cozy, Historical
  • Contemporary Romance
  • Historical Romance (particularly Regency & Victorian)
  • Graphic Novels
  • Manga (mostly shoujo & josei)
  • Knitting books (not really a genre, but still a lot of them in my library)
