About My Library
My collection is basically a professional Religious Education library, with a good sprinkling of Franciscan titles. I enjoy the generous inter-library loan facilities of my local public library, and borrow books rather than buy them.
About Me
I read - lots. I have at least one novel and one non-fiction book on the go all the time. Thrillers, some crime fiction and "literary" novels engage me most. My interests in non-fiction centre around theology, world religions, Franciscan spirituality, politics and chronic pain.
