About meSoon-to-be college student. Hoping to become a librarian someday. Mad about art, comics, and speculative fiction, and curious about everything.

About my libraryBooks I own are under 'my library', books I don't are 'read but unowned'. I'm making an attempt to enter all books I've read since 2007, when I started keeping detailed records, plus adding the ones that stick out in my memory from before 2007. Not recording manga, unless I own it, because it would be a nightmare to add that many volumes :-O Same with the wishlist feature - I'm not using that collection because if I started adding books, I would never stop...
