- About My Library
I started collecting books at the age of 15. As I've grown older I've been collecting them at a much faster rate than I can actually read them, much to my distress. I have recently realized I've read less than half of what I own. So, why am I always in here yammering, when I should have my nose in my books? Because it addicting, that's why.

- About Me
- I wish I had more time to read books, but I'm also an internet junkie. Too bad I lose one third of every day to this nasty sleeping habit I've developed.
I am often to be found drinking virtual pints and nibbling virtual cheeses in LibraryThing's best pub, The Green Dragon, which has become my second home. - Location
