- About My Library
- I read a lot of horror and suspense fiction when I was a teenager, so there's quite a bit of that in my collection. In high school, I discovered classic literature, and went on to major in philosophy in college, with a minor in Russian language and literature. These days I also enjoy reading about the science of biology on all levels, from evolutionary theory to medical technology. So all of those elements form significant components of my library. Aside from that, take a look and draw your own conclusions.
