About me Book addict with a desperate need to make room on the shelves. I work for a literary magazine and bookshop but my book spending has been getting dangerously out of hand of late.

About my library Mostly 20th century literary fiction, UK and US. A smattering of chicklit, parenting books and science fiction/fantasy. Too large to fit on my bookshelves, but smaller than I thought it would turn out to be when I started cataloguing. Still quite a lot left behind at my mum's.

Hi Rachel--Thanks for posting the Lorrie Moore event. I'm disappointed (but not surprised!) to see that it is sold out. Do you know anyone who has extra tickets they'd like to sell? Perhaps someone who isn't eager to travel in a cold, London rain? Please let me know.

Thanks!

Hi FlossieT. Thank you for adding me to your interesting library list. Enjoy LT.

I'm jealous that you work for a literary magazine - though I'm sure it could encourage me to even more spending.

All the best, Alison

P.S I used to live in Cambridge myself some years ago!

i'm laughing at your comment because i just got in the house with yet another bag of books i don't actually need. a friend told me of some book going at half price ... but then i had to browse the other shelves too!

thanks a lot for adding me to your interesting libraries list. i recognise the "book spending getting dangerously out of hand" bit in your profile only too well. it looks like we share a lot of tastes, particularly the "bookerish" novels.

i blog at http://thebookaholic.blogspot.com in case you feel like dropping by

Hallo FlossieT and welcome to the wonderful world of Library Thing! Empathy re: the book spending, I'm starting to think I need therapy.
Short pause.
Naaah.
Jealous that you work for a literary magazine and bookshop AND in Cambridge, too!
All the best, Carolyn
