I'm also a bit like Meg in Little Women by Louisa May Alcott, as I'm the oldest and feel the need to be the most responsible, the most devoted and dutiful.
I find myself identifying with Irene in the Invisible Library books by Genevieve Cogman. I'm an archivist/librarian, so collecting and protecting books seems natural. Like Irene, I'm not an expert in everything, so I rely on the expertise of people around me to get through any sticky situations.

It was one of those books that I read at the right time in my life. It is a story about a women deciding if she wants kids, it covers a period of a few years and all the situations and people that influence her decision. I identified with almost everything she was going through.
