About meEx teacher, ex Human Resource adviser, now education consultant (hurrah!). Living very very happily in Chelmsford with Liam and three cats + 3 adopted kittens. Favourite things: books, films, Pete Doherty's music, holidays, Liam and the cats (no particular order).

This has not been a reading year so far - but this is to change - am about to begin 'A Dangerous Liaison' (Carole Seymour-Jones). And, Liam and I are also getting married in October in Gretna Green and will be honeymooning in Venice, so lots of quality reading time to come.

About my libraryLiterature, Criticism, History, Philosophy et al. One room in the house is devoted to books (one of the reasons we moved house) but, of course, they spill into every room. I have no idea how big our shared collection is but hope to soon find out - I have started with fiction and will be cataloguing them alphabetically - as this is the way they are organised on the shelves. I think it will take some time - but I am very excited about the whole process. Everything 'rated' has been read - although, some I have not rated because I need to read again to re-assess.
Nettle, in the picture, is 'resting' on the N-Z volume of the OED (not posed, I promise!)

Ordinary Miracle - Sarah McLachlan

It’s not that unusual
When everything is beautiful.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.
The sky knows when its time to snow,
Don’t need to teach a seed to grow.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

Life is like a gift they say
Wrapped up for you everyday;
Open up and find a way
To give some of your own.

Isn’t it remarkable?
Like every time a rain drop falls,
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

Birds in winter have their fling
But always make it home by spring.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

When you wake up everyday
Please don’t throw your dreams away;
Hold them close to your heart
Cause we’re all a part
Of the ordinary miracle.
Ordinary miracle

Do you want to see a miracle?
ohh ohh ohh, ohhh ohh ohh...

It seems so exceptional
That things just work out after all.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

Sun comes up and shines so bright
And disappears again at night.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.
ohh ohh ohh, ohh ohhh ohh...
It’s just another ordinary miracle today
Noticed that you liked The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here (as well as on a few other book-related sites). I thought you might like my novel since it's been compared to that novel by a number of reviewers. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

Hi I recently bought "Three Stories and a Reflection" by Patrick Suskind on the net on 15th of August, however I live in Cairo and the book never arrived from the United Kingdom! I am in desperate desperate need of the story "Depth Wish" (which is inside the book) as soon as possible. I am a filmmaker and have based my latest short film on that story. The film is however in Arabic and I need to translate it ASAP into English (subtitles). Could you please please please scan just the text of "Depth Wish" and send it to me by e-mail ( noharifaat@gmail.com). That would be so so helpful as i am not sure when this book is ever going to arrive. Your help would be truly appreciated.
Thanks so much,
Noha
Saw you gave Catcher In The Rye 5 stars - I do protest and had to write a message on the conversation link called catcher in the rye - the worse book ever!!!
Yes, this website is an obsession indeed, but what a nice one!!

Love the picture of your cat! We have a black cat, too, though we would never allow him anywhere near the books.
