Book tastes

I like most biographies, better young adult fiction, science fiction/fantasy, and books of photography or about photography. I also like paper crafts, other than Scrap booking, so How-To books are definitely good. I work as a Nanny so I like books about or for toddlers, too.

Don't get this!

I am currently not reading History, Politics, Popular Culture, Self Help books, or anything too serious.

christiguc: Perhaps some biography/photography books? Like Daring to look : Dorothea Lange's photographs and reports from the field by Anne Whiston Spirn? (Sat, 28 Nov 2009 23:50:40 -0500)

helena2109: Possibly 'Darby: One Hundred Years of Life in a Changing Culture' - a wonderful biography of an Australian Aboriginal man, but also a book full of beautiful photography (Sun, 29 Nov 2009 02:50:56 -0500)

Dear Maggie1944 - I can't believe I am your Secret Santa! The pressure is really on to pick books you'll like. I checked your library, and you don't seem to have any origami books, so I got you a couple. I also know you like Neil Gaiman, so I hope no one else gives you the book I've chosen by him. I wish you the very best Christmas and a very Happy New Year! Warmest regards, Jan (Wed, 02 Dec 2009 12:47:39 -0500)
