About My Library

In theory, this is just for books that I own or currently have in my collection (usually because I borrowed them from Agatha), and my goodreads is for books I've been reading in the past couple of years. I also have a shelfari for the same purpose, but I have more friends on the other one. :P

About Me

After teaching English for five years, I've just begun graduate school studying library science. Yeah, I love reading. I only love one thing more, and he'd probably be annoyed if he knew I was calling him a "thing," so don't tell. I love traveling and Earl Grey tea with honey almost as much as reading. I have daydreams that would make awesome novels but I never write them because that takes a lot longer than dreaming them.
