A propos de ma bibliothèque
My library consists of classic literature, poetry, short story collections, children's literature, literary graphic novels, some left over textbooks and a few random travel guides.

It exists in a couple of large bookcases in my home office.

Favorite Bookish Quote:
"Life happened because I turned the pages." Alberto Manguel

I would like to one day have this framed in my library.
A propos de moi
I was born and raised in Missouri (Go Cardinals!), lived in New York for a few years, moved back to Missouri and somehow ended up in Connecticut of all places.

I haven't gotten too much reading accomplished in the last couple of years, but I am attempting to finishing all those books that never seem to make the cut.

Shortcut to the list here: Over the Clover.

Current Picture:
Books and the act of reading are often connected with sleeping, dreaming, and comfort. It's a concept that I find interesting, and this picture just seems to personify that idea.

Genres I read:
I stopped reading fiction completely for about six or seven years and just read non-fiction. I like autobiography, biography, memoirs, history, media works, travel logs, and women's studies. But now I'm mostly back to fiction and have a lot of catching up to do on books I own and haven't read. Currently, I am generally interested in classic literature, horror, poetry, and short stories.

Lists I am currently working on:
I have a lot of lists I am working on related to reading. These are the ones I have chosen to focus on at the moment.
Short Novels (50% finished)
Top Ten (60% finished)
1001 Books (7% finished)

My Reviews
I am very uncomfortable with the term review. I wish we could choose to review or to just make some comments. I don't think I ever really review anything. There is a reader out there for pretty much everything and, if something doesn't resonate with me, it just doesn't resonate with me. I hardly ever give 5 stars. I like most things, but I guess I hardly ever love something so much I think it is perfection.
