I work in the circulation department and mostly read mysteries, short stories, graphic novels and books about comedy and pop culture. I also enjoy walking, yoga and watching TV— a lot of TV. British shows are my favorite, and involve debates with my husband about what else we've seen the actors in and then looking them up on the internet.
