About My Library

I love reading. I have a lot of murder mystery books and thrillers, some great, some very bad. I also have some classic fiction, I like Dickens, Austen and that gang. Am a big fan of historical fiction. It's so nice when I find a book that just takes me away to a different time. Often with mysterious big houses, overgrown gardens, hidden doors, etc. Once in a while it's also nice to read some fantasy or adventure stories. The rest of my collection contains history, humour, gardening books and various nature guides.

Having added all the books I own, I've now started to add ones that I have read, but that I do not own. The pedant in me is annoyed that I can't remember what the covers looked like on all of these. ; )

About Me

Like reading, photography, outdoor life and gardening. I've always been very interested in flowers and wildflowers. Lately I've also developed an interest in fungi, not for eating, but I think it's fun to try and find out what the different ones are called. I've given up on the little brown ones though.
