About meI enjoy meditating, reading, photography, camping, cruises, snorkeling, movies, lilacs, beading, dragons, castles, eBay. I love TiVo so much I want to marry it. Almost everything I own is some shade of purple. I ADORE Sol-Mates mismatched socks, and Crocs. I am studying Buddhism and regularly attend my local Sangha services.

I have TONS more books/tags/ratings/reviews to input here, and am taking it kinda slow. I am having a great time here, and am so grateful for such a place!

I also wish with all my heart that I had a library in my home just like the one in the Beast's castle in Disney's Beauty and the Beast! (And I wish I lived in Candleshoe)

About my libraryI am a voracious reader with an eclectic collection. Which helps me have an extensive vocabulary that includes words like "voracious", and "eclectic".
Currently reading the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer because I just couldn't stay off that bandwagon any longer!

In case you come visit my profile, but haven't checked the "Name That Book" group lately, take a look and see if you can help me out! Thanks!

Hello fellow bibliophiles! I have been successful in finding all of my childhood favorites save ONE! I posted this on the Loganberry site, but someone else confused themselves as the OP, and it is listed as SOLVED, but it is not the book I am looking for. I am very happy for the other person, as they DID find the book they were looking for. I will try here, and hopefully someone will remember...

This book is about a young girl. I remember reading it in the early 70's, so it was written in the 50's, 60's, or possibly as late as '70 or '71. She had a secret hiding place she would go to at night, which was like a thicket, or brambles of some sort. At certain times, (possibly a full moon?) There would be a wolf, or some other similar animal, that was her friend, I think. There was something unusual about the color of the animal's eyes. There was also at the very end, some hint that the animal was really this man she knew, a handyman or gardener, or neighbor... as she noticed that he had the exact same color eyes.

*BOOKS THAT ARE NOT IT*
My Wolf, My Friend (aka Sasha, My Friend) by Barbara Corcoran
String Of Time (aka Nightmare) by Irma Chilton (aka I.M. Chilton)
Girl in the Golden Bower by Jane Yolen
