About my libraryI think I started reading books when I was 8 years old. I remember the first "big" book I read was "Corazón" by Edmundo d'Amicis. Then I read "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupery and it became my favourite book up to this day.

I have borrowed and bought many, many books in my life. They make me happy. I have a huge library back home in Colombia, and hopefully one day I'll be able to bring it to the United States with me. Now I'm starting a new one, just with a few titles. I try to use the library services as much as I can, but there is something about stepping into a bookstore I just can't quite define. I love the smell, I love the touch, and the fact that the book belongs to me.

My library is very eclectic. I have books in the three languages I speak (Spanish, English and French). I am now trying re-define my reading style, and I'm starting to get interested in the classics of English literature.
