Book List

This is a list of books I've read so far this year. As an aspiring librarian (and theologian), I try to read a lot of books. It's mostly theology, which was my major in undergrad, and very little of it is fiction, but take a look anyway! I'm always open to book recommendations too! just shoot an email to keegan@papercranelibrary.com

  1. What an interesting list! I absolutely LOVE She Who Is. I like to read a lot of (feminist) theology books too, so I'll share some titles with you :)
