- About My Library
- I discovered Library Thing, thanks to OZVBB and I'm entering books into the library as I read them as of May 2010. In Feb 2012 I've added our bookclub reads as of 1999 and also decided to enter the old file of books from my Visual Bookshelf that no longer exists. I lost all the journals from that shelf so will try to compensate in time. Other than that, keeping up with reading has been in written journals.... something which I rarely do, nowadays.
- About Me
- I love reading and read anything .... though if I had to pick favourites, I'd go for historical, travel and biographies.
