I love books that are epic, books with lots of pages and maps at the beginning. I love heroes and heroines. I like it when there are pictures. Take a look at my "Completed" shelf in My MCL to see what I've been reading lately. My all-time favorite book is, and always shall be, The Hobbit.

I’m a lifelong Oregonian, a dedicated librarian, an ex punk-rocker and, most of all, a reader. When I’m not stuck happily in a book, I like to get out and explore this city and the forests surrounding it, over rock and under tree and wherever the roads might take me.
