Hi! I’m Abigail. Obsessed with books, dogs, and coffee. Throw a cozy place to sit into that trio and I’m all yours. Lover of Bookstores And Libraries, the Bookshelf has always been my favorite hangout.  I have had a book in my hands since I was a wee bit. I am fascinated by language…words, structure, usage. Language is like music.  Music is built from structure but is a freely creative experience that can make us feel such powerful things. Words are like that…not to be carelessly used or thrown about. Each word a choice, each choice creating an experience. I hope when you visit here you feel like you’re visiting an old friend. That’s how books have always made me feel. And like an old friend, we may not always agree but we will always be civilized. Let’s talk about stuff, let’s explore. I absolutely want to hear what you think! That’s where the “Random Thoughts And Discussions” page comes in handy. There are so many great books out there I will never be able to read them all. But the ones I do read I love to talk about, so let’s get chatting! Come in, look around, and check things out. There’s a lot to see here and I can’t wait to get to know you. See you at the Bookshelf! – Abigail
