About My Library

I have thinned my collection down to include only: Books I have read and liked, meaning that I may read them again someday and: Books not yet read, but that I intend to read and anticipate that I will like. All are entered on 'LibraryThing'. I still add to my collection. I have not bought a brand new book in years.

About Me

A retired gent. I read a lot. I also attend minor league baseball games.
