About meI love books. I am a teacher. I spend a lot of money for books for me, my family and for my students. Some books here are also part of my son's library.

About my libraryI have a good diverse collection. I have religious books from my "minister" years. I have history books, topic that I love. I have many children's books. I have books in Spanish though not as big as my English collection. I have bought many religious fiction for my wife that she has read. I have added tags to the books for easy finding. Some children books (tag: school books) have special tags such as grade levels and how hard they are based on my experience as a teacher. Since I have some of them at school where they check them out, this can help them find books appropriate for them.

Hi, I just joined this site. Are you a writer too?

A seminary grader grades seminary students' papers. I graded Biblical studies, theology, Greek, Hebrew, and a few more odd classes. My favorite was grading the exegetical papers, which were usually 12 to 25 pages in length. I'm a slow reader, so it's easy for me to pour over every detail of a paper. The students were distant learners, some being missionaries in "far off lands", while others were taking the courses because they needed to take it when the professor wasn't teaching it that term. And a lot of other reasons in between I'm sure.

Every once in a while I look to see what people are reading that have books that match mine. I have to say that you have one of the most interesting matches, and certainly you have the most "religious" book matches I've come across. And there will be more matches when I finish cataloguing. Often if a reader has "religious" books they aren't ones I recognize. And you aren't a pastor and neither am I, though I have and M.Div. and a Th.M. But you are a teacher, and that's good. I'm a grandmother who watches her grand-children. I used to be a seminary grader, a job I loved and hope to have again sometime.
