About My Library

I read a little bit of everything, but I gravitate towards certain things, especially in what I collect:
- books about books
- mysteries & bibliomysteries (pre-1970s)
- vintage novels (1800s-1960s)
- antique childrens books (especially McLoughlin Bros, Blackie & Sons, Lothrop)
- color illustrated fairy tales & classics
- vintage/antique books about tea or cats

Best ways to view my Library, if you're so inclined..

-"My Library" collection: Style A. Will show you date acquired & where, and also interesting notes about edition, condition, inscriptions, things found in them etc.
-"Public Domain" collection: Style B. This is where I like public domain books and sites. It will show you original publication date vs date of scanned edition, link to the website, tags & collections.
