About meBooks, knitting, cats, college, mad swashbuckling.

About my libraryI enjoy thorough and creative tagging--the more tags that make you snicker, the better.

As for actual books, the recreational section is heavy on fantasy and YA but on the dormant side right now. I'm not buying as much as I used to, and finding I can't enjoy a lot of what I did a few years ago. (Stupid college, making me think about stuff.) Academic books are mostly Caribbean and Atlantic history.

Rather than have a "wishlist" tag, a rough version of mine is under the username "fionana."

those Blue Moon books
those Dhampir books
those Ukiah Oregon books

and if any of these are parts of series, the rest of them too!

(okay, this is a lot...maybe I can't afford all of this shipping. but! maybe some of them are already at school, or you'd be bringing them anyway. and of course if it is too much, I trust you to pick the best ones!)
I am definitely sure! I am working on the list as we speak.
In adding all of my books, I'm realizing that most of the fantasy I've read is not very good. I know it's hard to bring lots of books from CA, but I will pay for media mailings of books that I need to be reading!
May be I'll be a better tagger now that you have inspired me.
Hi, I just wanted to say that I really enjoy your tags, they are much more creative then mine. :)
Emma, I too alphabetize my books. And my art books are arranged first chronologically by period, then alphabetically by artist for monographs. We do this because we are *awesome*.
hi piratequeen

i saw we shared some favourites - lorna freeman and megan whalen turner - & i was wondering whether you know of any good pirate fantasy? I've just read 'Inda' & 'The Fox' by Sherwood Smith - possibly my favourite books of 2007...
yep :)
hello :)
my aunt illustrated the book "tales of two canines:the adventures of a wolf and a dog"
yep thats all...oh and i love pirates too (im considering being one when i grow up but i have no boat and no money but could always resort to stealing one, after all thats what pirates do.
HA
I found you ♥
Kittah!!! *glomps the kittah* That picture is so cute. ^_^ Just needed to let you know, which I'm sure you do already. :P
