About my libraryWhat is listed here really only represents my last few years of pleasure reading. Most of my non-fiction, reference and educational types of books are not cataloged.

I note with some amusement my long love affair with mysteries has nearly entirely given way to my current affair with fantasy and sci fi.

Ratings values:

- a book I found incredible and plan to re-read for a deeper appreciation of it
- a book I loved but do not plan (at the moment) to re-read other than perhaps if part of an on-going series
- A book that surprised, entertained and intrigued me. I want more.
- great potential but I'm not quite sold as yet. I'll probably want more to decide.
- I'm ambilvalent at some level. Perhaps the writing, perhaps the plot, maybe I don't like the characters.
- most likely would not recommend, although that has varied. I'm having issues with this book, generally explained in my review.
- hated something about it, but can see where others might find it entertaining or even good.
- - various levels of detestation which I may or may not explain in a review, depending on how long I could stomach it for. I doubt I'll have finished any of these, barring the whole 'fascinated by the trainwreck' effect.
