About Kay

Hi! I’m Kay and I am a nerdy twenty-something French Canadian, currently working on a master’s degree in art history. As of now, February 2012, I have been running this blog for a little over three years.

The Infinite Shelf is my little corner to share everything about my passions. It started as a strictly book-related blog, but over time I have been adding more and more content about photography and knitting, too.

I buy more books than I can read, and despite the books piling on my desk and my shelves, I still have this fear in the back of my mind that I might someday  – oh horror! – run out of books. In order to prevent that, I gladly consider every reading suggestion I get! 😉

My love for books goes way far back in time, before I could even read. My mom used to fall asleep while reading, and in my desire to imitate her, I asked to go to bed with a book, too (yes, one of those spongy bath books with 5 pages and big drawings!) My mom certainly is responsible for my addiction.

Apart from the books, I live with two wonderful characters, who I will nickname here The Man of the House (a.k.a. the man who’s been sharing all of my ups and downs for 8 years now) and The Furry One (a.k.a., the cat). Although they don’t always understand my book addiction, they [usually] don’t complain about it.
