About me"From this hour I ordain myself loos'd of limits and imaginary lines,
Going where I list, my own master total and absolute,
listening to others, considering well what they say, pausing, searching, receiving, contemplating,
Gently, but with undeniable will divesting myself of the holds that would hold me."
Walt Whitman, "Song of the Open Road" (1856)

Thanks so much for the kind words Judy! We are here on LT, but we haven't been great about adding every book we talk about to our Library... we hope to change that very soon, going back to get all the ones we missed and making sure we're diligent from now on!

Hi Judy,
We do need to talk--I miss having someone to talk to about the books that I'm reading. I haven't read In the Lake of the Woods yet. After your message it's next on my list. I just finished The Book Thief. I absolutely loved it! Thank you for the links to the radio shows. Talk to you soon.

Thanks a lot for your comments. You're right, Breath really takes your attention away from everything else; I stayed up pretty late reading it as well (but not as late/early as you!). I'm looking forward to reading more from Winton. Cheers.
