About meRabid bibliophile, sci-fi geek, humorless feminist (that's a joke), comics fangirl, unlikely to ever leave grad school. Fictional characters I would like to be include Flynn Carsen (The Librarian film series), Ana Pascal (Stranger Than Fiction film), and Oracle (DC comics character).

I enjoy cross-referencing, vegan baking, writing poetry on people, making art, and alphabetizing.

About my libraryIn the last year I have made two major moves, one of them cross-country. I have taken at least half of my books with me, but many, particularly my children's books, are still in my original home. I won't be adding them anytime soon so, alas, my online library will remain incomplete.

Saw you liked Bastard Out of Carolina, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here (as well as on a few other book-related sites). Thought you might like it since it's also southern and a bit dark. I'd be glad to e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

Hello there,

Thanks for accepting my invitation.

If you like fantasy and YA books, then you must read HAROUN AND THE SEA OF STORIES by Salman Rushdie. I just love that book - Rushdie's ideas, style, vocabulary...

Also, I'd strongly recommend THE NEVERENDING STORY by Michael Ende. It's the most imaginative book I've ever read.

Keep in touch.

Best wishes,
Nataly

Hiya!

Just saw your review of "Confessions of a Blabbermouth". I know you said you weren't fond of Minx as a concept, but have you given any of the non-Carey titles a chance? Personally, I've really enjoyed all of the Minx books, even though I don't quite fall into the "teenage girl" target audience (having said that, none of the people I know who read and enjoy Minx are teenage girls ;-). The one that stands out for me for its depth of emotional engagement (as opposed to being good fun, light entertainment) is "The Plain Janes". Give it a go.

Hi there! I actually have all of my books catalogued (minus work-related ones, which I might get around to one of these days). It was... quite a big project. I'm still tagging them, though.
