Good to see a another "Bloomsbury Nut" . Arne't they unique?! . I've used Virgina Woolf as the Geographic center and have expanded out from there. . Anyway , just popped in to wave hello .
Thanks for your friendship! I look forward to checking out your books and hope you enjoy mine.
Hi again -- Just a brief note of thanks. Because of your 5 rating on Fur Person together, of course, with the exceptional quality of your overall library, I read it today. It is a perfect in its genre; indeed a five!

I needed to read something light like that. I just finished John Banville's Man Booker prize winning The Sea, a gorgeeous slow dark read (see my review here on LibraryThing), and needed something uplifting. My own fur person, 13 lb gentleman cat Cougar, spent the entire read on my lap. He was quite puzzeled that I had chosen to spend the morning indoors and not out with him in the garden...but when he saw me sitting in my favor reading chair in the early morning sunlight, he knew I needed a book prop, and he needed a nap.

LibraryThing is inspiring me to do more reading and to start reviewing. It's fun!
HI - Just a quick note to let you know that I enjoyed going through your library. I put Fur Person by May Sarton on my Wishlist (a newly added tag in my library). You gave it a 5, and I am a sucker for great animal books!

Also, thank you for rating your books. It really helps. I wish more users would do that. And, thanks for being brave enough to rate some classics with low stars. It is how YOU feel about them that counts. If I see that you rate the same titles simlarly to me, then when I see one of your 5 star ratings, I act.
Thanks, Eurydice. I am a bit of a Bloomsbury nut, it's true. I've just started adding to my catalogue here, and have quite a bit of VSW and related stuff to post. I was surprised that "Vita" was available as a user-name, btw.
When I saw your username (under Rex Stout, so no association), the first thing I thought of was V. S.-W. The tag including Virginia Woolf, and a quick search, confirmed, at any rate, their mutual presence in your library. I've been trying to improve my own Woolf holdings, and look forward to poking about in your collection soon.

Best wishes on cataloguing...
