I work as the managing editor at http://www.makeuseof.com as well as being a tech blogger and freelance writer. My real love though is books and if I had a books-related job, I would be in heaven :-) About my libraryI have a particular fondness for novels in the genres of crime, mystery and thrillers. I am a HUGE fan of Sherlock Holmes ("the game's afoot!"), as well as more modern crime writers such as Henning Mankell, John Sandford, Jonathan Kellerman and so on.

I finished The Boy in the Striped Pajamas last night and read your review today!
It really is an incredible book. And, the ending was truly unexpected.

I hope you stick with LibraryThing. I've only been here a couple weeks or so, but it feels like a dream come true. I never even knew a place like this existed!

Good to hear about the Gutenberg work, and if you're a Windows user you might like my free yBook software for reading offline (when you're not proofing, that is ...)
Cheers
Simon

and thanks for adding me to your 'interesting libraries' list. I am always pleased when someone does this as it shows that I must be doing something right.My collection of books has taken many years to put together,but has been a labour of love I assure you.
I certainly like your profile page with it's striking picture to head it. I also see that you like the crime and mystery genre,and you might like to take a look at my 'Crime Fiction' tag. There is also a fair few under the headings - Biography,Autobiography and Classical Literature/Classic Fiction-all of which you mention as interesting to you.
Anyway thanks again,and I hope to hear from you soon.
All the best from the UK.
