Books & Manga

I’ve enjoyed reading ever since I learned to read, I think. I’ve read all sorts of books, though I’d have to say my favorite genre is fantasy. In my teenage years I did a good bit of sci-fi reading as well. Maybe someday I’ll list all of the books that I own. It’s too daunting a task, however, to try to list all of the books that I’ve ever read. The same for listing favorite authors simply because there are so many books that I enjoy, not to mention I have a hard time defining favorites.
