About meHello - I'm Katie and new to New Hampshire. So far, I love being here. I'm fulfilling my dream of living in a draughty little house in the mountains and it's lovely. I work at a local hospital in behavioral health services where my undergraduate degree in Social Work comes in very handy. However, I'm thinking of grad school and an MLS or MLIS is tantalizing. We shall see.

In 2008, I participated in the 50 Book Challenge; my challenge thread can be found here.

In 2009, I am participating in the 75 Book Challenge; my chellenge thread can be found here

About my libraryI have a fairly eclectic library. I really enjoy reading feminist fiction/nonfiction - most notably in my collection would be books by Margaret Atwood, Joanne Harris, Alice Hoffman and about Eleanor Roosevelt, although I'd love to read more female authors or about other successful women. I also have a soft spot for classic literature, although I don't/have not read as much as I would like. I'm hoping to fix this with my 999 Challenge.

I've only recently been adding books to my library that I don't actually own, which are tagged: do not own. I will also try to tag how I got my hands on it.

I've also only recently discovered the "Date attained," "date began," and "date read" fields. I've tried to update that as close as possible; I don't put exact finish dates in my book journal (paper, not on the computer), just the month and year. Because of this, I've used the first day of the month as my finish date just to make things easy. Plus, it still gives me a good idea when I finished it.
