About My Library
At one time I had many shelves of books in my home, but now live in a small apartment. So, I get most of my reading material from the public library. There is simply no way I could list all of the books I have ever read; I just don't remember them all.
About Me
Reading is my life. Work used to get in the way of reading, but I'm retired now. Although, since I started knitting two years ago, my reading has slowed down some. Yet, wherever I go, there is a book with me.
