About meThe profile photo is titled "Willow at Rest".

I am a scientist looking to enrich her life through reading new and interesting books. When I was little, I wanted to be either an astronaut or a librarian -- can't remember which came first. Fear of flying (among other things) kept me from being an astronaut. LibraryThing is wonderful for the mildly compulsive, cataloging aspect of my nature. I joined LibraryThing when I purchased a Kindle. I wanted a way to view my library as a single unit, not hard copy vs. electronic. I also like seeing the covers.

About my libraryMy library contains books I own (both read and unread) as well as books I do not own but am sure I have read. I have not listed my professional books. It only contains my husband's books if I have read them. There are many books I have not entered, even though I have read them, because I don't remember them very well. I am slowly add my wishlist books to this site, but waiting for pink check marks (or whatever) before adding too many. My Wishlist is the only collection not included in My Library. All the other books are in My Library, on the theory that if they have passed over my eyes and into my head, I "own" them on some level. This makes me feel good - that I have ownership of the ideas, even if I do not have a physical copy.
