About meI like to find themes in and connections among stories, especially those found in folklore, Midrash, children's picture books, and Buffy, the Vampire Slayer.

About my libraryLots of children's picture books and Judaica. Books included comprise a virtual library---books I own and books I have read and books I want to read. Adding them to this site is a work in progress.
Book covers are not always 100% accurate, but if they aren't close, they're not used.
