Tietoja minusta I'm a therapist and avid reader; I could spend an entire Saturday curled up with a book in front of the fire. I also love to cook, garden and spend time with family. My husband and I recently bought our first home which we share with our two cats and lots of bookshelves! I was a bookworm from the time I was small, and love books for their transportive and transformative power.

Tietoja kirjastostani My collection is steadily growing; I enjoy reading modern literary fiction as well as the classics. I am also fascinated by literature about other countries; this interest was inspired in part by my husband's deployment to Iraq last year which fueled a desire to know more about the Middle East. My goal in 2008 is to really delve into fiction from other countries and expand my literary travels. I am starting off the year exploring fiction from Africa and am chronicling that journey in the Reading Globally group.
