About me33 yrs. old. Book nerd since birth, I believe.
I have to finish a book even if I hate everything about it.

Began reading early on... Before school. Alway's the kid with the longest "book-worm", in school reading competitions. Eventually, reading things my mother found inappropriate. So, I hid them.

Example--It in 4th or 5th grade. I couldn't stop reading IT and my mom insisted I needed to be outdoors. I wanted to stay in my room until I finished IT, no pun intended. So, that is what I did. I holed up (in hillbilly language) and finished IT. She found the book and insisted that it was of the devil and after that had to hide anything not deemed "wholesome."

I was not a lazy child, just not inspired by the highly sports/rich jerk community I grew up in. It was difficult to be an artsy person in my school system.

About my libraryAs varied as the day is long. I love horror, ghost stories, certain fantasy, some sci-fi, poetry, real life fiction, comedic entertainment, tale's of angst and distress, some memoirs.

Thank you for your comment on my "Water for Elephants" review! My wariness of clowns disinterested me in the circus when I was a child. That's the nice thing about books like this - they make you reconsider things you've resolved to dislike for most of your life.
Thanks for the nice words...and welcome to the site. I think you'll find that this is the perfect spot for book lovers and that a nice community feeling exists. Have fun.

I heard about this site on NPR. I may not be the most literate person, but I love to read.

I am super excited about this site. I've never really belonged to something like this before.

I've started to join my space, etc., but it didn't draw my attention. I never filled out more than the password and I've already forgotten them.

I am a book nerd and I am proud about that. If this site is what I hope it is, I will become an official paying member.
