About me

About my library I write reviews for my own sake, so the reviews in my library may contain spoilers.
I make an effort to review a reasonable amount of the books I read, but it is a bit random which ones. Usually the best books don't warrant reviews - probably because there is so little to complain about.

The books in my library are books I own or (in a very few cases) books I have owned and discarded. The books I've read without owning are not registered here.

http://www.librarything.com/allyourcover... inspired an ongoing coverscanning project. All books for which I have provided my own cover is tagged MOC. The status so far:

All books acquired after 01/01/2008 has been scanned and covers uploaded.
All normal size dictionaries, encyclopedias etc. which aren't in the basement are scanned and covers uploaded.
All Donald Duck omnibusses are scanned and uploaded.
All Asterix omnibusses are scanned and uploaded.
Working on childrens books and comics.
Working on Large books and cookbooks.

i appreciate your lengthy suite of reviews..will be very helpful in deciding where to direct my reading next. Hadn't heard of [Wicked Gentlemen] but intend to pick it up either @ the library (w. luck) or at a local bookstore.
thanks!~

Hi There. You introduced me to Arturo Perez-Reverte...thank you, thank you, thank you. I am SO impressed with his writing and his TOPICS. The books have sent me off on searches for paintings and museums....what a TREAT. I work for an airline in an airport and I tell someone every day about this site and what a pleasure it is to talk with folks about books. If they are carrying a book I talk to them about this website.
I am almost finished the Painter of Battles. Wow.

I gradually forgot most of my danish over the years, until I went to graduate school. The challenge of learning new stuff must have stimulated my brain in just the right way, because one day suddenly, when I was walking to class, I started thinking again in danish about what I would do, if I could travel back for a vacation.

Hej!

Jeg var udvekslingstudent i Kobenhavn 25 aars siden! Men jeg virkelig kan ikke tale dansk anymore! Og jeg aldrig laert at laese elle skriv den god. (Grrr for computers that don't have the danish letters on them.)

Friended you back both here and on LJ ^_^

I saw you removed a reply on Bug Collector - strange where you meet people on the internet :)

Da jeg først gik i gang blev jeg helt bidt af at finde nye interessante steder. Har indtil videre en liste på en 8-10 boghandlere/bogcaféer/antikvariater jeg ikke anede eksistere, men som jeg helt sikkert må besøge når jeg en dag får tid. :)

Jeg var på Eurocon sidste år, så jeg regner også med at afsætte noget tid til at besøge Fantasticon i år + komiks.dk ser rigtig spændende ud med alle de udenlandske tegnere/forfattere, der kommer.

Mmm, emailing me might be slightly difficult... my email address isn't anywhere in the LibraryThing system :-)

I read Queen of the South after seeing your recommendation.........fabulous book!
There is so much in it about women and their lives I may actually buy a copy to keep.
Thank you !!

LOL! It definitely doesn't stand for object oriented programming. It stands for "out of print." Hope that helps. If you have any questions about specific titles, or want recommendations let me know.

LibraryThing says our catalogs have a 99% affinity!

is there a better way to recommend books?

Hi Amberwitch, I am also a memeber on The Green Dragon. I thought I would say hi. I am glad to see someone else who has read Jan Siegel!

I like your nickname, its very cool :)

No data from Amazon, but I did find a surprising number in the collections of the Library of Congress and at UC. I expected to find the classical music, but not as much rock as I did. One of my rocker friends has commented that he's going to send his cds to LC -- "the nearest thing to immortaliy" . The balance I did manually; it didn't take that long.
