About meOne of my most memorable moments in life was receiving a library card at age seven (this is really aging me)! Wow, this little card gave me access to the world. Back then the cards were made of little more than construction paper. My worst moment at the library: I took out three books, read them, and returned them the next day to check out three more. The librarian accused me of not reading them, and would not let me check out books for a week...it was a very long week.

Back to the present, I am passionate about reading good books, and I love to pass them on after I read them. So I may have a library listed, but it is mainly books I have read.

After living in North Carolina for 16 years, I am happy to be back in my "environment." I was born in Coburg, Germany in December, and while North Carolina is a lovely state, I bloom best in cool weather. My husband is from the sunny South, and hibernates in the winter.

Irene...Here's to your growing TBR pile. I used to feel a little book pressure about mine, but now I say the more books, the more choice. I've been saving November 22, 1963 to read at the time of its occurrence in history. I am becoming a big fan of well-done historical fiction. Thank you for your comments. I hope the book is memorable for you.
I'm looking for two more copies of Brave New World.
