About meGreetings and happy reading!
About my library==========================================
My library is crammed into one small bookshelf and the shelves on my computer desk (Not now, I'm just too lazy to take new pictures). My favorite section of the bookstore is SF/Fantasy, which I have found to be quite an addictive genre.
