About meI am a librarian in California. My user name comes from the anime "Fullmetal Alchemist". Sciezka is a character who got fired from her job as a librarian because she read all the time. Her apartment is filled with books from floor to ceiling. Although I'm not as obsessed as she is, I can definitely relate!

About my libraryI have finally finished adding my books to LibraryThing! I like regency romance, fantasy, and space operas the best, but I read from all genres.

Hi! I'm researching the silent film actress Colleen Moore, as we are going to add her Fairy Castle library as a Legacy library on LT soon. You have a Candlelight Regency romance titled Bold Venture by Colleen Moore. I'd like to determine as much as possible whether it is a different person, as it likely is, though the actress also has a few titles to her credit. Would you be willing to pull your copy and see whether there is any identifying information about the author? I'd appreciate it. Ruth
Hello! I'm a librarian in Florida and we seem to have similar reading tastes, in genres and many authors. (I posted a friend request for you, hope you'd like to.) Beatriz
Hi! Thanks for being my LibraryThing friend. It's nice to meet you. We have some great books in common!

Lisa :)
awesome collection!
Apparently you're the only other user who has "Friary's Dor" by Betty Hale Hyatt listed. It makes me happy to know someone else has this book.
In reply to your comment, I use the regency tag for books that were published in one of series lines (i.e. Zebra, Signet, Fawcett). These books are commonly called "traditional" regencies and tend to be sweeter, with little to no sex, and are much shorter books. I use the regency historical tags for the fat historicals that are not part of a line. These tend to have more sex and be a little more serious and dramatic. I think of them as distinct genres, as they read much differently to me.

Yes, librarians do tend to want to know these things! I'm also a librarian, so I understand your curiosity.

Just curious -- how do you differentiate between "regency" and "regency historical" in your catalog? Librarians wonder about these things, I guess.
