- About My Library
- It will take me the rest of my life to upload my whole library. Right now I'm starting with my Virago Collection.
- About Me
- An avid reader; will read almost anything but particularly women's fiction of the 19th century. Currently working in the library at Cambridge University, writing a novel and trying to keep control of my 7 year old daughter and a manic cat.
