About meI was born old, sentimental, and prone to laugh. At 53 I've stopped apologizing for my taste in books. I enjoy them. End of story.
About my libraryIt started the day we ordered our first book from the Scholastic Books catalog in grade school. I could own my own books? I was hooked for life.
Of the approximately 2,000 books I own I've only entered a few hundred here. These are the books I enjoy owning the most.
