About meI'm a wife and mother of three children, who have all now graduated from high school. I have worked at home as a part-time ophthalmic transcriptionist for twenty-five years, and I have a daily habit of exercise and fairly healthful eating. I love singing in my church's choir, and I am crazy about playing board and card games.
I am trying to vary the types of books I read, but I especially have enjoyed mysteries and biographies/autobiographies lately. I don't care for Russian fiction, fantasies, science fiction, and horror stories.
I'm a horrible writer, so please bear with (or ignore) my reviews!

"I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.” (Groucho Marx)
About my libraryI own very few books. Most of the books listed on this site are books I have borrowed from my local library. I added up what the cost would have been through Amazon on the 100 books I read just last year alone, and I would have spent over $1400. So. . . I LOVE my library!!!

Your dream vacation sounded WONDERFULF!! I was in Jamaica once for a conference -- it's a fascinating island -- but we stayed on the University of the West Indies campus, which was pretty, uh, non-luxurious (if that's a word) and not by the beach. Very interesting place, though. I enjoyed it.
Thanks again!

Thanks for writing back. I'm glad you enjoyed my website. I have some very computer savvy friends in Perth who came and gave me a hand setting it all up.
Do let me know what you think of the Follett books when you've finished them.
Keep well, happy Easter,

Hmm, I read a lot of sf and fantasy (which you don't), but have found quite a few books we have in common on your shelves. I don't have all mine listed on here, but they are all on my website at http://members.westnet.com.au/ariom if you want to go have a look. I also have stories for children and some teaching aid stuff. Probably not of much use for your kids as they're older, but maybe for others.
Have you read any of Alexander McCall Smith's books starting with The No.1 Ladies Detective Agency? They are a delight, as are the books of Salley Vickers (Mr Golightly's Holiday and Miss Garnet's Angel specifically).
I loved the Pillars of the Earth and also the follow up to it (although as yet I've only had that one from the library ... plan on getting my own copy sometime soon)
Regards,
