About meOakland Ca, 45, single, with 22 pound ginger mutt best friend named Sleepy.
I've read several books a month for most of my life. I seem to go in passion periods. I get a subject in my head and then want to read everything I can about it. For example, I saw "Eyes of Tammy Faye" and decided to learn everything I could about PTL, even though I had absolutely no connection to Heritage USA or televangelism.
Ireland as a subject is a big staple for me. Not the mythic Ireland but the authentic recent history, from celtic tigers to troubles.
Travelogues make up about 25% of my library. I read every one I learn about. Not sure why I like that genre so much.
About my libraryAlways looking for travelogue suggestions. And any book suggestions, really. ;-)

I recently became the chair of the Library Committee at the Gay and Lesbian Community Center of Pittsburgh. If you are ever in the mood to weed your library we'd like to have any of your items that might be of GLBT interest. We're looking for books, magazines, DVDs, CDs, directories, etc. If you send us duplicate items we'll put them in our book sale. We're also starting a lending collection of adult (XXX) DVDs and video. Send those to us if you are so inclined.
We'll reimburse you for your costs if you ship via US Mail. We'll also send you a letter acknowledging the value of your contribution for tax purposes.
Check out the GLCC Library here on LT and become a fan of the GLCC Library on FaceBook.

I hope you'll consider donating to the GLCC Library of Pittsburgh.
Thanks.
Dan
PS
If you can't donate to us please donate to your local GLBT Library. I'm sure they need your help too.
