About my library My library contains mostly fiction, by women, from the UK. I'm not even close to having bought all the books I have on my lists and in the foreseeable future I'll probably add and read a lot more fiction from the 30s, the 40s, C18, C19 and children's books.

I can't believe that it arrived so quickly, thank you for letting me know that it got there safely. I will certainly watch out for a Paris postcard too, thank you.

Hi Sibylle, I'm just letting you know that I am back from the post office and the Virago booklet is on it's way to you in France right now. I hope you like it. Will you let me know when it arrives?

Sybylle, I have just been to the bookstore and managed to get hold of three of the Virago Modern Classics 30th Birthday booklets we were talking about in the Fabulous Finds thread. I promised to send one to you so the first one is yours if you want to send me your address and I will put the other two up for grabs on the thread.

Welcome to LT and especially to the Virago and Persephone groups! Dorothy Canfield Fisher is one of my favorite authors and I hope you enjoy reading the Home Maker. She lived in France during WWI and introduced the teaching methods of Maria Montessori to the US. Her children's book Understood Betsy was my favorite childhood book and had a big influence on me.

I also like Nancy Mitford and notice many of her books in your library. Glad you are here!

Hello, Sibylle!

You have a great collection of books! How did you like The Dud Avocado? It's one of my very favourites.
