Sobre mimI am a teacher and lover of books. I was one of those children who used to read under the covers with a torch when I was supposed to be asleep and a dream come true is a day curled up with a good book.

Sobre a minha bibliotecaI treat 'good' books with care and only use a book mark but treat trashy novels differently; turn back pages, fold back covers, crack the spine and frequently drop them in the bath. I was pleased with the number of Australian authors in my collection but also surprised by the number of books that have disappeared through lending and moving. I have quite a list of books I'd like to replace, an even longer list of books to catch up on and a ridiculous number of children's titles that I haven't had time to catalogue.

Noticed you liked Lovely Bones, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here, as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it also contains a young female narrator struggling with a series of tragic circumstances. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:

Hi Belinda :) Nice booklist - I see Winton won the Miles Franklin for Breath. Not a bad choice....
Find the Miracle
(by Alan Cohen)

"On a journey through a jungle, a king accidentally cut off his toe
while chopping a coconut. "That's wonderful," exclaimed his advisor.
"There is a blessing here." The king, angered at the advisor's flippancy,
threw him in a pit and left him there.

The next day, the king was apprehended by a band of headhunters who
decided he would make a good sacrifice. When the tribal priest noticed that
his toe was missing, the headhunters released him as an imperfect specimen.
Suddenly the king realized that the advisor was correct, and he returned to
the pit and apologize profusely.

"No apology necessary," said the advisor. "It was also a blessing
that you threw me in this hole."

"How is that?" asked the king, incredulous.

"Because if I was with you, the headhunters would have taken ME for
the sacrifice!"

Imagine that everything that happens to you is assigned by divine
order. If you look for miracles, you will find them."

Help me see the good in everything.

I am in the presence of love,
taken care of at all times in all ways."
