Tietoja minusta I surround myself with books and the ocean. It helps that I work in a library as a the director and I'm from Maine. My personal challenge is to read every book indexed in Book Lust and More Book Lust (both by Nancy Pearl). Those books are tagged 'booklust' whether the suggestion came from Book Lust or Nancy's second book, More Book Lust. Books tagged with "accomplished" are books I have finished reading specifically for the challenge.
Note: As I go through Pearl's books I'm noticing many, many mistakes within both indexes. As a result I am not relying on them for a complete list of titles.
About my reviews: you will have to read the BookLust "rules" in order to understand the nature of most of my reviews (see wordpress link).

Tietoja kirjastostani I'm trying to catalog everything I have ever read, even if it's not in my collection anymore. I'm also tagging the books I would love to read when I have the time. The tag 'essential' means these are the materials I would rush into a burning building to save.
I can't survive without music so I've included most of the music I love and own.

Wow! What a gorgeous pic!

I can definitely see why you enjoy time out at the ocean.

Have fun!
Along the lines of mistakes in More Book Lust, in the index: She put only the first sister, [[Jon Godden]] as the author of [Two Under the Indian Sun], when the other author, [[Rumer Godden]] is my favorite author. Try her books [China Court], [An Episode of Sparrows], and her autobiography in two parts, [A Time to Dance, No Time To Weep], and [A House With Four Rooms]. I love your picture! I love books and the ocean, too!
How are the Book Lust readings coming along? I feel like I am not making any progress, but then there are so many books to read if you are working from both volumes. Someone dared me to add in the Book Crush books, but I dont know if I am that crazy. If you are up for it, the Book Lust group is discussing having a small book club for the group. We will pick a new book from Book Lust each month, read it, and then discuss it through the group. Come by the group if you are interested.
I love Nancy Pearl too! What a rockstar she is!

hi seriousgrace...missed the part about Maine so I assume you are on the atlantic...my grandaughter's name is Ula Grace so that's what attracted me to your name...glad I did...ted
wow!!!...what a list...I'm impressed...I just started, so I've got a ways to go...what ocean are you on?...I'm on the pacific...you might enjoy'the circus in winter" by cathy day...best regards ted
Thanks for the inspiration. Books and the ocean sustain me as well. I am on the SC coast.
Hi there! You're listed as one of my "Members with Similar Books," so I checked out a few reviews on your blog. Awesome! Good luck in your Book Lust quest - I'd like to get through those someday too. I especially liked your Book Lust Rules and About Me pages - you are an entertaining writer and a great blogger. ;)
Hi:

I'm new to LT and I was browsing around looking at members who share a lot of books with me. Came across yours and went to your personal site. The baby is adorable. Anyhow, I'm jealous of all your books and have these two recommendations:

A great curl-up-on-your-favorite-chair-with-a-cu... work of fiction is A Short History of a Small Place by T.R. Pearson. Positively the best thing he ever did.

I also noticed you read Lusitania by Diana Preston. Go out and get Boxer Rebellion by her. It's gripping. Anyhow, I like your two sites and love your library.

Tom
Great to meet you! Thanks for accepting my friendship. I'm Looking forward to checking out your library and I hope you enjoy mine.
Seriously, Grace!

I love the new picture! I can hear the ocean; I can feel the warm sun and breeze; a mini "return to happiness!"

I'm a trained librarian, too, and am more than pleased to have discovered a trove of wonderful people and resources at Librarything. I just happened on the site a few days ago, and am completely hooked! I'm not sure I'm ready for the Book Lust challenge, but I'm always on the lookout for great reads!

Have a great week!!
you're welcome. Your library's really inspiring and a joy to visit!

Yes, I have watched the movie, Tuesdays with Morrie. Needless to say, I enjoyed the book more. Although I must admit Hank Azzaria and Jack Lemon made it worthwhile watching!
Thanks for your message. Being from Down Under, it's interesting to see which Aussie authors we share - and you've read,
Cheers
Don
I saw your post about working on both Booklust and Newbery lists and thought I'd drop by to say Hi! I was also surprised by how many books we share (80), normally when I share so many books with someone they're all Star Wars. Good luck on your challenge!

That is the most detailed system, I just add TBR to the ones I have not yet read. I think I am going to start a FaceBook book club to find other nutty people like us who want to read all these books. Have you seen the calendars yet? I wonder if there are other books on those or just the ones from the books.
I think it's going to take me the rest of my life to read the titles listed in both books. I just take them one at a time and pray I live long enough to finish. I keep a short list of titles with me and if I find myself in a situation to pick up a book from it, I do. Have you read them all yet?
Grosse Pointe Blank is definitely on my list of essentials, as well!
Great picture of the coast! I see we share a whole bunch of books...
SeriousGrace,

We have a lot of books in commom. I just joined and saw your name on "books we share." We also share "grace."

what a beautiful shore!
