About meThe sort of person who when asked what they do in their spare time/for a hobby answers "I read".

About my libraryMy library includes (i) all books that I have read since joining LibraryThing, (ii) books that I currently own, and (iii) include some books I read before joining with an appropriate tag. The pre-LT books are mostly epic or romantic fantasy novels as that was pretty much all I read during highschool.
