About meMaking progress on all fronts, sometimes not quickly enough. But I'm trying!

My goal is to catalog all of the books I own: at home, at our condo, in the garages of each, and in boxes. Most of the books are mine; a few belong to my husband -- but he'd have disposed of them by now; essentially, they've become mine. Others were discarded by my daughter, and are tagged with her name in case she ever wants to reclaim them. I've started to keep track of what I've been reading on my LT wiki page.

I hope to have accurate data in my catalog, so please contact me if you find an error.

Hi Carol. I added a bunch of books and it seemed pretty easy. I don't think it adds cover pictures from the LoC, only Amazon, and Amazon doesn't have the out of print edition I own, Tolkien for example. Oh well. I need to write some reviews now. I like the recommendations and zeitgeist. I'm reading a post-modern non-linear novel called "House of Leaves" recommended by a sales girl at Borders. So far pretty cool.
