About meI'm 33 years old. For the last 28 years or so I have been a compulsive reader- I'll read just about anything; books, magazines, backs of juice cartons...
I'd like to say that my taste in books covers a wide area of subjects, as long as they're well written, but I have to admit that I enjoy reading the occasional badly written trashy novel as well!

About my libraryAs my library is split across three countries on two continents, it will take me some time to add everything onto LT (probably years), but I'll certainly enjoy the process. I have recently been sent a large amount of books in giant boxes that my father was keeping in his basement, so I am currently working on unpacking them and listing the ones I haven't listed yet. Since quite a few are already on here this should not be too much work; however finding the space to shelve them is a problem, so this may take me quite a while anyhow. Once I have managed to unpack all, I will hopefully be able to get rid of these horrid 'In Leeds' and 'In Hamburg' tags, which are quite irritating.
