About My Library
I like classics, literary fiction and Australian fiction and some non-fiction but I don't read biographies yet.

I read voraciously for two years here on Librarything, stopped reading while busy, lately completing some undergraduate study in psychology. In 2014, I have time to read for pleasure again.

About Me
Australian living in the historic gold rush town of Ballarat not far from the shores of Lake Wendouree, a tiny man-made water feature that used to be a swamp. It is said that Wendouree means "go away" in the language of the original inhabitants.

Location
Ballarat, Australia
