About My Library
It's a bit random! I add things as I start them, rather than catalogue all the books I own before I read them. My collection includes fiction, ethnography, biography, travel, comedy, music, art, faith, history, all sorts really. Eventually I want this to detail everything in my home library and books I've read (eg from the actual library). I'm more into non-fiction generally, but am consciously trying to read some of the fiction on my shelves too.
About Me

I'm English but live in wonderful Scotland. I keep buying books with good intentions to read them, but then get distracted. I love the ROOT and Category Challenge groups here as they are great for motivating me to try and conquer Mt. TBR. I've written a book! See here: https://www.books2read.com/thecalmplace

In a nutshell: a bit of a nerd, occasional flashes of brilliance.
