- About My Library
- A mix of English and German -- but probably more English.
- About Me
- I'm a retired school librarian and enjoy reading contemporary fiction, some YA literature, and some non-fiction related to reading, philosophy, history, and current affairs.
I belong to two reading groups, one meets monthly and reads fiction and non-fiction in German, the other bi-monthly and reads only original English-language literature. - Location
- Ueberlingen, Germany
