About meI'm a graduate student in Library and Information Studies at the University of Oklahoma. I got my BA in Psychology with minors in English and Japanese which explains some of the things in my library. I have more books than space currently, but I'd rather get more space than get rid of books. On the other hand I don't need duplicates of books, so this catalog will hopefully help me with that.
About my libraryI love science fiction and fantasy, but I'll buy anything at library book sales if it remotely seems interesting to me, so a bit eclectic overall with special patches of interest having large amounts of books in them.

A Massive Number Of Really Quite Odd Books That Tell Me Your Real And Actual Taste Is Very Much Like Mine.
Which last leads me to ask: have you ever read Dust by Arthur Slade? A bit hard to get ahold of (though it's only from 2003), but gorgeous and strange and I think based on your book collection that you'd like it. :)

I appreciate the tip you gave me about romance novels and Georgette Heyer since sometimes I'm simply too 'scared' to try any of these books - even though I want to - for fear of stumbling onto something that will put me in a pretty depressed mode. Explicit writing seems to do that to me! I so much prefer to read something charming that will put warmth in my heart and a smile on my face!
Oh yes, I love the regency period, in fact, I love all stories put in historical contexts. Historical mysteries and romances but strangely enough I also like science fiction a lot - go figure......;-)
Speaking of historical mysteries/romances, have you read 'Good Night, Mr, Holmes' by Carole Nelson Douglas? I absolutely love this book - it made me feel so good - and for someone like me who has always had a special feeling for the era of Sherlock Holmes it really hit the spot! If you haven't read it I can truly recommend it!
It would be nice to hear from you!

I've not read Tanya Huff, though I have come across the name. Which is the best book to start with?
Authors you might like - Karren Miller, C J Cherryh and Anna Mccaffery. Karren is a new austrailian author who's Innocent Mage is pure fantasy with great characters. CJC and AM both write crossover SF/F again more character driven than world building. They've both writen vast amounts of books. AM's Dragonflight is the first of her famous Pern series.

I saw the title of the group and couldn't stop laughing. My dad has said those exact same words to me countless times.
