About meLove books: borrowing or buying them, reading and reviewing them. Have hundreds I haven't read yet! Mostly fiction, interspersed with non-fiction. Average 1 book per week.
About my libraryLots of fiction and some non-fiction,slowly reading my way through them.
To date I've cataloged the books I own, a combination of my favorite reads, and many unread but-hope-to-get-to-soon. Also listed many books I've read over the years, either borrowed and returned, or owned and donated. Then there is the monster of a wish list I've created.
