About meI am addicted to books. Once I touch them, I can't let them go. Even the ones that are totally ridiculous, that I'll never read, that I don't like, I keep them all. The best I can do to control my problem is to steer clear of bookstores entirely because as soon as I cross the doorstep I am doomed. As a professional chemist, I have many books on chemistry and other sciences, but I also have a huge number of novels both classic and pulpy, favorite childrens books, and science fiction. Once I get them all catalogued, I hope to add reviews and notes.
