About meI like to read. I buy more than I read, but I keep trying to read more. :-). TV is not much of a time competitor, but this computer sure is, as are various projects around the house. I do most of my reading from midnight to three a.m. Occasionally I get to read earlier.

This list is for my reference and much easier to locate than in the 50 book challenge.

About my libraryI don't have the largest library on LibraryThing, but it's large for the size of my house. Books are in every room except the bathrooms. (That's where the magazines are!)

There's a little bit of almost everything (and a lot of some, like fiction). Most of the books reflect my interests, even many of those I have yet to read.

A few books belong to family members and were listed because they're here. I've indicated them with their initials in the tags and will be putting them into separate collections.

Another collection I'm going to make is books I want to get rid of. Most of them aren't worth anything to anyone (outdated computer books), but not all. I figure I'll list them and anyone who wants them can have them.
