About Me

Welcome to the Silver Dragon’s Book Hoard!

Silver Raine is my pen name. I’m an aspiring writer, book lover and blogger from Lahore, Pakistan. I have a B.A. in Computer Science and English Literature, and an M.A+M.Phil in English. This blog is a place for my thoughts about books, reading, writing, and language learning, and how it all relates to my life in general. I read across a wide range of genres, usually depending on my mood, ranging from my current obsession with cozy sff and cozy mysteries to classics, fairy-tales, gothic horror, nature nonfiction, translated fiction, comics, manga and so on.

When I first started this blog I wrote that I envisioned this as a place where I could let my imagination soar, sometimes by writing stories and poems and sometimes by taking on different personas, like a dragon, an elf queen, or a traveller between worlds. I’m not feeling that inspired these days, but I’ll still leave this line here as an inspiration and reminder of my younger self. I’m also a very introverted person, and while that isn’t something that can change, hopefully this blog will also help me fell less anxious about expressing and sharing my thoughts, ideas and feelings with my bookish friends.

Thanks for visiting!
