About meI'm 23, and I'm killing time in Australia while waiting for my visa to come through. I'm easily addicted, I understand nine languages to varying degrees and speak two fluently, and I always spend way too much on three things: lingerie, international phone calls, and books.

About my libraryMore than half of the books I've added here are actually my partner's. Please excuse the abundance of fantasy fiction; he won't read anything that doesn't have magic and dragons. I am working on getting him to see the light.

See this thread for the books I've read this year!

Noticed we hadn't heard anything from you for over two months on the 75 book challenge thread. I hope all is well with you!
Nikki,
I listened to Year of Wonders last year on audio. I found it intriguing, but I don't know if I would have stayed with it if I had been reading it. Some of the death/plague scenes were terribly heart-wrenching - I think I almost ran off the road once because I couldn't stop crying! I'm reading the Chocolat sequel now (The Girl with No Shadow/Lollipop Shoes). It's pretty good, but I'm not enjoying it as much as the first book.
Have you read The City of Ember, yet? That's one of my favorite young-adult books. My sixth grade students love it!

Cheers!

hi! sorry for the late reply regarding a thread on cheapest places to buy books, f you're from katipuan, take a jeep going to UP diliman, get off at a waiting shed in front of post office, there's this small building UP Union sign. this is my e-mail add btw esmetuts@yahoo.com, just in case you need clarifications.thanks.
Just wanted to say that I love your user name! I saw it on this week's "What Are You Reading Now?" thread and it made me smile. :o)
I think I actually just walked into the bookstore and they were there--a university bookstore, probably. But otherwise you can probably order them online, or get them wherever you got Regulus!
I love getting books in multiple languages! I have Harry Potter in Latin and Greek too, and some Hebrew Dr. Seuss. I also like Monopoly games in different languages because I can use them even if I don't know the language at all :D
