About meI'm a software developer with a mathematics background and a mother of two daughters. I love knitting and board games. I'm kwmg40 at Litsy and mathgirl40 at BookCrossing.
You can usually find me at the Category Challenge group or the BookCrossing Challenge group.
About my libraryI enjoy mysteries, science-fiction, fantasy, and literature, especially Canadian literature. I love awards lists and each year, I follow the ones from the Booker Prize, the Tournament of Books, the Hugo Awards, the Aurora Awards and the Ontario Library Assocation's Evergreen Award.
