About My Library
Almost everything in my library is fiction (mainly fantasy/sci-fi) since that's what I like to read the most, and if it is non-fiction, it has to do with language, technical communication, content strategy, or web development. I only catalog physical books, so my collections do not include ebooks and audiobooks that I own.
About Me
On the professional side, my interests include technical communication, web development, web design, content strategy, and languages/linguistics. My personal reading preferences are science fiction, fantasy, historical mystery, and the occasional classic. My mom was a professional librarian cataloger for 30 years until her retirement, and my dad has owned and worked in bookstores. Books are a family thing.

I make videos about books in the Booktube community on YouTube. You can visit my channel and hear me talk about what I'm currently reading at http://youtube.com/user/kalanadi.
