I'm an adult services librarian who loves world-building and learning something new from the books I read. My reading list is usually full of comics, graphic novels, sci-fi, fantasy, science and historical nonfiction and any cookbook with great photos. Outside of the library, I enjoy late night baking, watching soccer and sinking hours into videogames.
