About meFeel free to leave me a comment about my books, my reviews, or anything.

About my libraryI'm not very good at getting rid of books, so there are a lot of childhood series here. My reading tastes are better reflected by my Recently Read collection, which goes back about five years. Or to get a sense of the books I'm reading right now, you can visit one of my challenge threads:

75 Books Challenge for 2018
75 Books Challenge for 2017
75 Books Challenge for 2016; Part 2
75 Books Challenge for 2015
75 Books Challenge for 2014
75 Books Challenge for 2013
75 Books Challenge for 2012
12 in 12 Category Challenge
2014 Category Challenge

My ratings are based on how much satisfaction I personally derived from the book.
