About me

Hi. I'm Anna Zhou.

If you're looking at this, it's safe to assume that you have come to the excellent deduction that I blog about books, and on occasion, other gems that I find when I scour the deepest trenches of the internet.

I have a B.A in English Literature, and since it's impossible to make a living off of it, you have to allow me the luxury of occasionally sounding pretentious. For me, literature is a way of expanding one's mental limitations, of connecting consciousnesses that would otherwise be impossible due to physicality. As you are reading this, my thoughts are resounding in your own brain, and thus, we are now connected, in some peculiar metaphysical way. My voice has existed, no matter how temporarily, inside of you. I have just planted thoughts into your head. Funny right?

Reading is also about immersing myself in new worlds. It takes me to places I have never been before, and I am always learning new things because every writer is different and has a different experience to offer. I love writers who write honestly. Show me your world, indulge in me your thoughts, and let me glimpse at the materials you use to adorn your soul.
