- About My Library
- Mostly books I liked and would recommend. I think there's a pretty wide range and hope I've included some that interest you.
- About Me
- I love to read, but have very eclectic tastes, and also love to travel. Music leans toward jazz and classical with a little blues and Bonnie Raitt thrown in for good measure. I'm often in a little British car, traveling through the Midwest. I love NYT and LA Times crosswords and even do a little crocheting now and then.
Tastes run from biography through commerce, marketing, science fiction, cozy and not-so-cozy mysteries and stuff that just looked good. I'm reading more and more non-American authors and enjoying them. If there isn't a rating, I haven't read it yet. - Location
