Hello, My name is Lily, and I'm a book dragon who has trouble expressing herself. You'll find me buried in a book or daydreaming all the time. My life revolves around books. As a book lover, I also scream and sob over my books and fangirl 24/7, so if you would like to follow my path, you're welcome! Book nerds like me always have a towering TBR pile staring us down at our desks. Every year, we promise each other we'll tackle it. But somehow, we never manage to finish it. Every time we cross one book off the list, three more take their place. It's a never-ending cycle, but we wouldn't have it any other way.

The other thing I enjoy doing besides reading is learning foreign languages. The two languages I'm learning are Spanish and Chinese. I am failing both of them. I often feel like I'm not making much progress, but I still enjoy the challenge of learning new words and phrases. It’s frustrating at times, yet I’m confident that with practice and persistence, I will improve.

I spent my childhood in libraries and bookshops, so everyone knows to give me a book gift card. My name is familiar to every librarian since I used to volunteer at libraries a lot.

I enjoy fantasy, science fiction, and horror. However, I'm willing to read almost any fiction. I want to keep my options open with genres. Some books and authors can surprise you in unexpected ways. Also, nobody should ask me about my favorite books because I'll melt.

The actual picture of me isn't available since I am a very private person. I cherish my privacy. It helps me manage my life and keep my boundaries safe. It helps me focus on my goals without the pressure of external scrutiny. Moreover, privacy gives me the freedom to share my life with only those I trust.
