Sobre mimFormer Editor and Writer. If I don't have a TBR pile by my bed, I can't sleep! I am the mom of three kids and often read to them at night, so some notable Children's selections will be on my list. Here is a quiz you can take to see what kind of a reader you are:

(I am an Obessive-Compulsive Bookworm.)


Also, I am a Cool Nerd Queen (and I took a test to prove it) LOL!





My original goal for the year was 100, but life interfered in August and September, so I've downgraded to 85. Reading has always been my escape, so I don't want to lose my joy to pressure!

I have enjoyed logging my books in (not complete yet), making new friends and getting WAY too many book recommendations. I think LBT rocks!

Sobre a minha bibliotecaMy library is composed of books I have read. I try not to list books I want to read (unless they are for book club and I know I am going to read them soon). I don't differentiate between those I've borrowed or those I own, largely because most of my books are in boxes awaiting shelf space and I can't remember which ones they are! Sigh.

"Every book should begin with attractive endpapers," he had once told Meggie. "Preferably in a dark color: dark red or dark blue, depending on the binding. When you open the book it's like going to the theater. First you see the curtain. Then it's pulled aside and the show begins." Silvertongue/Mo from [Inkheart]

My Rating System:
***** excellent, go get it!
**** very good
*** still enjoyable
** disappointing
* not worth finishing
