Sobre mimI'm a fairly random person, often with reddish streaks in my hair, and I'm addicted to writing, teaching, and working tech for theaters (still looking out for one in Pittsburgh). In the in between, I help organize poetry events, try to have a social existence with my amazing fiance and beyond, and find new ways to procrastinate what I Should be doing....like this. In the picture, you see my lovely cat RJ trying to help me wrap for Christmas--she's also often seen on my lap with a book leaning on her. I've just started work in a PhD program in a Pittsburgh, and am waiting impatiently for a company to hire my fiance, who's still working down south until something opens up here.
On a side note, I do keep a myspace page and a blog there, but I only mention books when they're absolutely outstanding, in which case they get a mention/note/review on facebook too. Most recently, those were The Translator by Daoud Hari, Emergency Sex, and The Sound of Building Coffins.
Sobre a minha bibliotecaProbably about as random as you get. I read mostly contemporary work Lately since that's what I've been teaching, and my nonfiction tastes tend to run toward environmental or biography, though lately I've been reading about the diamond trade and Darfur, but that's about as much as you can pin me down...and I'm sure my library will find ways to contradict this description no matter what I write. Most of my books are entered here, I think, though there are still some boxes in storage at my family's house. In general, if it's been reviewed, I've read it, and if it hasn't, I haven't (or don't own it), though there are many anthologies which I've read various parts of and haven't reviewed. When it comes to what's here though, the obvious point of interest is simply that I'm addicted to books.
In my "To Read" collection, there are many many anthologies which I've read significant portions of, but they're listed in "To Read" until done. Also there are many many books which I have read, but so long ago that they need to be reread before I can think of reviewing them or remember more than that "I really liked that a long time ago..." (which is why I now review everything I read, to refresh my memory as much as for the system). This is the case with most of the Elfquest books, quite a few of the older suspense novels, and some of the classics as well.

Mark and I have been discussing the possibility of another group read in November and want your input. We have narrowed it down to two books at this point. "The People of the Book" by Geraldine Brooks and "The Thirteenth Tale" by Diane Setterfield. So chat it up with friends or us and let us know if you are up for it and what you think. Probably the same plan as with "Pillars of the Earth" which seemed to work out perfectly for almost all of us.
Think it over and give one of us a shout.
hugs and looking forward to hearing from you,

Thanks for the 'interesting library' nod. I'm curious, we share so few books (relatively speaking) what drew your interest to mine?
BTW, I enjoyed your review of The Sound of Building Coffins. I thought it captured the essence of the book very well.

message 74: DeadFred
Good review. Your one of the few people that I have heard enjoyed those last three chapters . This includes most of the people he sent the first private printing to ( 18 copies I think) in 1907. They just didn't get it .
According to a couple of Henry Adam scholars ( Samulson/Chalfant) and even Adams himself , this work was not intended as an Autobiography but was written the third person. I agree to a point but I remember something Gertrude Stein said about a rose?..
Oddly, He left out of the *Education" his wife Clovers suicide in 1885. This sent him rocking off into the unknown and he never recovered fully .
Again, Nice review.. you might discover after a couple readings that this book is really worth the 1918 Pulitzer it received . Ive read it three times and I STILL can't get passed those last three charters.

So you like non-fiction? I just can't seem to get into it that much. It's probably because I'm still taking classes and that's all I get to read for them, so in my 'spare reading time' I enjoy getting away. The types of books I like, well I've completed all of SK works and I'm kind of jumping around right now between other horror/suspense books and children's literature. My library is getting huge for my classroom! I want to make sure once I'm teaching that I can give good quality reccomendations to my students and to relate with them once they are reading that book.
So off to Pittsburgh? Well good luck and be safe. I know moving can be stressful (I've never left my home town, but have moved around in it, so I imagine cross-country is even more stressful), but try to enjoy it as much as you can, afterall it is to better yourself right?

I'll check out that book you reccomended. I'm in the middle of a couple of reads right now, and my TBR list is extensive, just like everyone else on LT. So is it fiction or non-fiction?
What kind of books do you favor?

I want a cat so bad, we live out in the country so it could enjoy chasing mice during the day, but as of right now my boyfriend is saying no....I just need a little more time to butter him up :)
So your working on your PhD? That's so interesting! What's your bachelors in? I'm working torwards my Bachelors right now, Elementary Education.

Thanks for the words of welcome and the tip. I started reading a book last night that was publicly recommended by Christopher Moore from his website. He has a page called Chris's Picks where he recommends books and/or authors that he finds funny. The one I started reading last night is called [Pest Control] by [[Bill Fitzhugh]]. BTW, I don't know if the touchstone trick will work in this context. Still learning, I guess!
See you out there...

Been in you library. Lovely! I’ve just finished writing a review of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin”. Now I find you have already written up exactly what I wanted to say, even to the mention of Huck Finn. Your’s is perfect! I’ve printed it and placed it inside the cover of my copy. Stay nice!
