Grrr, I apologize for the weird format. I'm not sure what's wrong, and I don't really have the time or energy to fix it right now :-p Hopefully I can bring the prettiness back soon.

A Guide to L-Space
Book reviews and associated thoughts
What is L-Space, anyway?
According to Terry Pratchett, author of the Discworld series:
Even big collections of ordinary books distort space and time, as can readily be proved by anyone who has been around a really old-fashioned second-hand bookshop . . . . The relevant equation is Knowledge = Power = Energy = Matter = Mass; a good bookshop is just a genteel Black Hole that knows how to read. Mass distorts space into polyfractal L-space, in which Everywhere is also Everywhere Else.
All libraries are connected in L-space by the bookwormholes created by the strong space-time distortions found in any large collection of books.

About me
If you've made it this far into the blog you've probably realized that I'm rather fond of reading, but here's a few more categories that I fall into: Texan, Catholic, wife, Aggie, engineer, nature-lover, cook, and ineffective housekeeper.
Fantasy and scifi are my forte, but variety is nice so who knows what'll show up here. I get most of my books on audio for convenience, but I still try to squeeze in a real book every now and then ^_~
