About meInmigrant working in care... What can I say, life's sweeter when there's a book at hand. I'm surrounded by second hand bookstores... yay!
About my libraryThe real one? I've actually got two, cut in half between two countries: one side here grows in scary geometric progression, and contains my most recent (erratic) interests and my favourite authors; the other is back in Spain, big bulky weighed with latinoamerican and classic Spanish authors - I'm pretty sure it resents me a little and just sits there waiting for me, frowning.
One day I will finally decide where to settle down, and will reunite the lot, somehow; it will be interesting to see how the two mix together.

you said on another silly game that you don't know how to make a link to the books you enter.
when you click 'enter a post,' and the box comes up to type your response, look on the right side of that box where it says 'touchstones' in grey print. that will tell you how to create the link. all you do is put brackets [] around the book's title and double brackets [[ ]] around the author's name. when you post, the titles will turn blue most of the time and will form links. the authors turn blue about half the time.
if, when you type in a title within brackets, you look under touchstones, the title should appear there in blue. if it doesn't appear in blue, it's not in the data base, and you won't get a link. it happens, it's irritating, don't worry about it. if the author's name turns red under touchstones, that means it won't create a link. that happens to me about 2/3 of the time. *shrug* we all just work with it.
and i couldn't believe that you have an NLP book in your library. goodness! in my opinion, EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) beats NLP all to pieces. do you know about EMDR? check it out if you wish.

and no, they don't pay me to shill for them. ;) i just used to teach cognitive behavior therapy back in the day and when i had to stop teaching, EMDR was just coming into its own. i would have liked to have been trained in it.
well, enough about that.
really enjoyed your description of your library. :)
