About meI read everywhere, (at sports events, school events, long boring events), and almost always more than one book at a time. My library doesn't reflect much of what I'm into at the moment since I read extensively from the library and the local book store (especially when I can't decide if a book is worth the money.
I collect older books, currently I'm seeking Edna St Vincent Millay and anything of John Dos Passos. I search methodically and rather slowly, that's half the fun. The other half is in holding a hundred year old book in my hand. Heavenly.
About my libraryI continue to tackle "1001 Books", I'm heavy into theology and religion and an occasional bestseller.
Latest acquisitions:
Like Water for Chocolate
Light on Snow
The Voyage of the Narwhal
Foucault's Pendulum
Zorba the Greek
The Accidental Tourist
Cat's Cradle
I'm about to embark on the "Voyage of the Narwhal".
Good reading, everyone!

How the BLEEP are you? :o) Good to see you've been adding so many books to your catalog.

If they are swedish language, or translated to swedish, then I enter them under their swedish title ;-)
The last of the mohicans was my dad's book; I rescued it despite never having liked it much.

I'm fine, thanks for asking :-)
Off on vacation on Sunday - possibly I'll be off line for most of four weeks - but I do hope to find some well stocked bookshops for used books, though. Up north, where we are going, life's still much as what it was in Stockholm 15-20 years ago, meaning used goods have a value... ;-)

I hope everything is OK with you? Haven't seen you around in a while!

Check out the 'connections' link.. oh no! they have taken it away! I hope it's temporary... anyway, you could use it to see what your friends had added or reviewed earlier.

Anyway, now I clicked the link, hoping you'd like to be my friend :-)

Thank you so much for the books you choose as my LibraryThing Secret Santa. I started the first book last night and can not wait to continue. What a great choice.
Thanks again!
