About meI'm an academic librarian and slacker reader. I used to read a few books a week, but lately I've been struggling to get through one or two a month. However, it has been fun making my own catalog!
About my libraryI have purchased many books over the years that I have not yet read. Those are indicated by the unread tag. The other tags are used to group series. Books that are registered on BookCrossing are also tagged as such.
I decided to lump all science fiction, fantasy, and related genres under the umbrella of speculative fiction. Mostly because so often a single book contains elements of them all. I'm now going through and adding more specific genre categories, as well as expanding on tags for the books that are not genre fiction.
