- About My Library
- At one time, I had about 2000 books, which I moved once. As part of several more moves, I continued to buy and delete books from my library. It is currently the smallest ever because in 2018 I moved to Spain. I did ship some of my books, but not very many. I have been gradually increasing it by adding books given to me by friends, and occasionally buying new ones. Unfortunately where I live there is no good bookstore, so I do rely more on Apple Books and Kindle.
- About Me
- I'm a retired accountant who loves books. My mother was the school librarian and I spent lots of time in the library. For several years, I travelled a lot and have recently moved to Spain (2018) where I am enjoying Spanish and expatriate life. Where I live has a lot passionate readers and I belong to several literary groups. And I have been introduced to many new authors (British, Irish and Spanish) that I would not have encountered before.
I'm also passionate about gardening, politics and the environment. - Location
- Jávea, Alicante, Spain
