About My Library
This is probably my third or fourth library - with other collections culled or left behind in moves between countries, between relationships and between my mother's mania for not holding on to anything. If cookbooks are your thing, you might be interested in visiting my separate Cookbook collection.

Here is my current thread on the 75 Book challenge for 2014:

About Me

I live in Melbourne, retired from full-time employment in public relations and employee communications. My weekly bric-a-brac stall at a popular Sunday market plus on-line marketplace sales keeps me busy. My husband, Steve, died unexpectedly last year so I now have a housemate (an actor, Raj) to help out - he dog sits my shoodle, Molly, if I go away. My daughter and only child, Lucy, got married last year and we are both trying to find our way through this post-Steve world. I confess to finding my reading concentration is up the wazoo so, for now, I'm sticking with easy crime novels.
