GruposLibrarians who LibraryThing, Read YA Lit, SLIS-Indy
Sobre mimHi! I love books! I have always wanted to be a children's librarian. I am currently in the SLIS program at IUPUI. I am also a teen and outreach librarian. I am reading a lot of YA fiction (something I haven't done since I was a teen). Now that I'm in school I don't have much time to read but I do read as much as possible and keep a list for when I graduate! I love children's picture books and am an avid collector, especially books about or with goats (my other passion).
Sobre a minha bibliotecaI began this library several years ago to try to document all the books I own. Life became busy and I haven't thought about this tool until I was given a class assignment. I own most of the books in my LibraryThing, though I have added a few that I have read but don't own. Many of the titles listed are books I read for undergrad--some I enjoyed, others I didn't. As you can probably tell by the number of entries my favorite authors are William Faulkner & Jane Austen. I know they are very different but I had a great professor who taught me how to appreciate and love the literature of both authors.
*My profile picture is of Earlham College's Carpenter Hall where I discussed the majority of my Librarything books.*

There are so many graphic novels I could recommend! I have really enjoyed the novels dealing with specific topics or issues. Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi (autobiographical, she writes about growing up in Iran/Islamic revolution), Maus by Art Spiegelman (Holocaust), A.D. New Orleans After the Deluge by Josh Neufeld (Hurricane Katrina). One graphic novel series that I LOVE - I think they're great for all ages :) - is the Owly series. (http://www.andyrunton.com/comics.html) Too cute.
I really enjoyed Running With Scissors (didn't like the movie as well). I would like to read more of his books. As for the Harry Potter series, I hope you'll give it a try! I cannot compare it to the Twilight series (haven't read any of those yet). But I love the way these books pulled me in - I got (still am) ridiculously attached to characters and couldn't stand waiting to find out what would happen next. I don't know how many times I've read each of them... I may have to check out Meyer's books!

I think your goat book obsession is funny! I had a co-tacher in Germany who had a thing for Moose. I had no idea there were so many moose books for kids:-)
I think you're doing an excellent job of listing all of the books in your personal collection. I can't imagine trying to complete this task!
Good luck with your coursework.

I noticed that we share a few Kurt Vonnegut books. I am a huge fan of his. Have you read his new one, Look at the Birdie? I definitely want to check that out. I was also looking through your Literature tagged books. Admittedly, I am behind on a lot of these - I need more time to read!! You’re so lucky to have had a professor that had you read such wonderful titles. And you also have some other books listed that I would love to read, such as The Memory Keeper’s Daughter and The Poisonwood Bible. I started The Poisonwood Bible, but school crept in. I LOVED Animal Vegetable Miracle though. I noticed you’re a teen and outreach librarian. How long have you been doing this? For someone who hasn’t read a lot of YA fiction (like myself), what would you recommend?
I enjoyed looking at your profile!
