About meI'm 31 years old and I live in the Denver metro area. I'm addicted to books, television, movies, skiing, and of course Jayhawk basketball - my undergrad alma mater.

About my libraryI have this problem of buying books faster than I can read them. So if it's not rated I haven't read it, yet. Hopefully I'll get to them shortly. I've read more book then I have listed, but I only want to list books I own in 'My Library'. Of course, some of the books would not be in my library were I the same person, years ago, as I am now. *cough* Terry Brooks, Star Wars *cough* Feel free to leave comments or make recommendations.

If you're going to peruse my library, display the 'comments' section for some mini-reviews. (it's still a work in progress - hopefully I'll have something written for all my books soon).

I'm pretty tough rating my books (not every book is 5* - although it seems some people on this site don't agree).

0.5* - Stay away!
1.0* - Unpleasant overall.
1.5* - The book has something good, but definitely not recommended.
2.0* - Could have been worse, but also could have been much better.
2.5* - Only recommended if you're a big fan of the author.
3.0* - Decent read, if you're a fan of the genre.
3.5* - Recommended for fans of the genre.
4.0* - Darn good book.
4.5* - One of the best books I've ever read; enjoyable for anybody.
5.0* - Read it. Now.

Hi, I like the way you use your comments field. I just review all of the new books I read or the ones in my collection that I reread. Good looking catalog.

Always nice to find other fans of Cornwell and Martin. I'm currently finishing up the Saxon Chronicles. Still have Lords of the North and Sword Song to read. What's your favorite series by Cornwell? I also still have A Feast for Crows left to read before Dance with Dragons comes out. How did you like Feast for Crows compared to the other three?

Shadow Of The Wind is great and I immediately looked for more of Zafon's stuff translated into English but
had no luck. It seems like the Jayhawks are in a rebuilding year (I couldn't believe Dorrell Arthur slid in the draft that far). I have similar tastes to you it seems and I believe George R.R. Martin should send some sort of financial restitution to his fans for making them wait this long!
I really enjoyed your comments! Stumbled upon your library via "Members with your books" list. Oh, and I hated "Lord Foul's Bane" too. :) Could never understand why people thought it was great.
