About Me

A friendly, kind, book-loving girl who wishes she lived in the 1800s (so she could excavate in Egypt, shoot charging hippos and decipher hieroglyphs, of course).

Interests

Books! And everything else, from the Gilded Age, Victorian England and comparative linguistics to axial procession, the Cthulhu Mythos, obscure pharaohs and men with freckles ;)
