About meMother, wife, and teacher. I have an odd and extensive Wonder Woman Collection. I rarely watch television and so I am lost in the staff room, as they discuss the latest episode of Survivor.
I have a Reading major and a Master's in Library Media Administration, thus I have been feeling a strong need to organize my library and use the dewey decimal system.

About my library"Books can be possessive, cant' they? You're walking around in a bookstore (library) and a certain one will jump out at you, like it had moved there on its own, just to get your attention. Sometimes what's inside will change your life, but sometimes you don't even have to read it. Sometimes it's a comfort just to have a book around. Many of these books haven't even had their spines cracked. "Why do you buy books you don't even read?" our daughter asks us. That's like asking someone who lives alone why they bought a cat. For company of course." quoted from Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen.

Ok. so I read profusely , but this quote spoke to me as I am running out of room for books and my pile of books to be read, keeps mounting. I seem to keep buying or checking out more. It is a comfort to know that I have something to read no matter my mood or place. What is life without books?

Hi Wendy,

I love LT, it makes things very easy!! Wow....it takes me a long time to reply.
Bless you, dear woman, another one! I found Sorcery and Cecelia in the back door (delivered when I was gone for Christmas). How wonderful. I have read Wrede's Forest Chronicles - and loved them - but never any of her other stuff. Now my only dilemma: what to read first. Thank you, thank you, thank you three times for three terrific presents.

PS.Sorcery and Cecelia was on my Amazon wishlist. Did you find it there, or did you just read my mind??
We sound so much alike! I too find comfort and companionship from my books, even when I don't read them. Although I plan to - some time!

Thank you so much for my SantaThing books. You chose such great titles. I have read Number the Stars once, long ago, but I have been wanting to read it again, and since I have retired I love to have my own copies of favorite books. I am unfamiliar with Garden Spells, but it looks WONDERFUL! I can't wait to begin reading. I think I'll start with that one. Bless you for the care you took to find titles I would love.
