Over mijn bibliotheek

I'm adding books pretty much randomly, so it will take a while until the stuff listed here will be close to representative of my collection (which is way more eclectic than it looks like on here at the moment).

Over mij

I've been an enthusiastic reader for as far back as I can remember, which is a couple of decades now; and though I'm not reading as much as I used to, the enthusiasm remains undiminished. Although German is my native language, I also read books in English and French, even the occasional Japanese one back when I had not yet forgotten what little I used to know of the language.

Starting October 2011, I have been keeping a book diary,and am trying to post at least a brief review of every book I finished reading - mostly for myself, I'll admit, but maybe someone will find something helpful among them.
