About meI learned to read when I was four. My mother was expecting her 4th child and no longer had time to read me 20 books a day. Every photo since then, in the family album, I am holding a book. I've been reading a lot for a long time.
My first favorite author was Louisa May Alcott, followed by L.M. Montgomery, Jane Austen, and J.R.R. Tolkien. I love biography, historical fiction, non-fiction, essays, romance (think Georgette Heyer, not Danielle Steele) and everything in between.
I've been married nearly 25 years to the nicest man a girl could hope for. We have three children (19, 13, 11) who also love to read.

About my libraryIt's big and it's growing. I just can't help myself. One of my friends told me once that I was the only person they knew who would need a shopping cart in a bookstore. That might be true.
