I work in the circulation department. I read mostly history, nonfiction and science (geology nerd here), but also enjoy a good mystery or a sci-fi/fantasy excursion. I love nature and my personal version of heaven is a cabin in the woods with the sun setting, a fire going and a stack of good books still waiting to be read.
