About meI am a bookworm! I LOVE LOVE LOVE books! I love reading and will read just about anything I get my hands on that I find interesting. Some books are a little more difficult for me to get into than others, but I always try to give every book a chance and read at least 50 pages. If it doesn't have me by 60 pages, I have to put it down and move on. Life is too short and there are too many books out there to waste time on a book that doesn't interest me (at that moment).
About my libraryIt's not just a catalog of books I've read but of books I would love to read.
I'd say it's an eclectic collection. Some are books that I read while I was in a book club for a short time (long story there) and others I read in high school.

There is also a restaurant in Barcelona named Nuria and a toy story named Monfort...I imagine that it where Carlos got her full name. :)
Her place was really difficult to find, but where she lived was nice....didn't sound like that in the book. :)
Keep in touch...if you want to correspond via e-mail, please see my e-mail in my profile...it might be easier.
I love chatting about Shadow of the Wind and other books too. :)

Shadow of the Wind is my all-time favorite book...my profile photo is of the courtyard where Nuria lived....my son and I went to Barcelona to find all the places in The Shadow of the Wind....it was such fun.
Keep in touch.
