About meI'm an American living in Nova Scotia after meeting the love of my life on the internet 11 years ago. I'm a registered nurse married to a lawyer and fellow book lover. We live with our 3 cats, Anderson Cooper (a girl) and her two brothers Max and Harry. My favourite thing to do is to while away an afternoon at the bookstore. I can never leave without spending way too much money.
About my libraryI have a very eclectic collection. I have to admit I am always a bit reluctant to loan out my books. One must treat books with the utmost reverence. Never Ever bend the pages or break the spine. No eating or drinking near the books. I'm a bit militant.

It seems we do have many things in common! I am also very particular about my books. I keep a list of who I've loaned what books to so that I make sure I get them back. My mother is the worst person to loan a book to. When you get a book back from her the spine is broken and the covers are bent. She says she tries to be careful, but I'm not sure what she does to them. I've been known to buy a new copy after she's done! Most of my books look like they haven't been read.
I am a nurse. A new one. I worked for many years in insurance and my job moved out of state and I changed careers. I just started back to school to get my bachelor's degree. I am single, with a 24 year old daughter and a 2 year old granddaughter, both who like to read almost as much as I do.
I'm always open to new suggestions, so if you find a book that you particularly enjoy, feel free to pass along a suggestion!

I noticed you read and reviewed Dewey. I haven't decided if I want to read that one yet or not. Have you had a chance to read Homer's Odyssey by Gwen Cooper? I've been meaning to read that one.
Have a great weekend, Elizabeth!

My husband and I are planning to go to Nova Scotia next month to visit his son's family in Greenwood. I haven't ever been and I am so looking forward to seeing that part of my country.
