Tietoja minusta I am blessed to love dogs and books and most people who also love dogs and books...

What more does one really need - friends, a dog, a book -

And of course:

- a computer to help write your own book

- a cat, two gerbils, a tank of fish and Great Music

- Beautiful Surroundings (inside or out)

- Order and Simplicity

- Positive Thoughts

(maybe even a place to live and some meaningful work!)

"Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside of a dog, it's too dark to read."

Groucho Marx

HAPPY READING!

Tietoja kirjastostani I have just started to compile this library. I have traded, given away etc. most of my novels over the years - so I am trying to remember the names of the best novels i've read so I can share them with you!
Like - hm - what was I reading THEN - at that time in my life - at the coast - on that camping trip in the woods - on those particular school steps - in that coffee shop....

I look forward to continuing to add current books and am happy to know i'll not be likely to have to say to someone again - "I read a great book that I know you'd love but have no idea anymore what the name is - sorry..."

My Book Ratings:

5 stars - "Bedside" books

(well-written with something that has stayed with me and been "life-changing" in some way - books that bring me comfort year after year - books I want to wake up next to every day)

(I've given my brother's book, "Sea-kayaking Safety and Rescue" five stars - not because i'm into kayaking, or want it by my bed, but because he wrote it!)

4.5 stars - Better than Excellent, books to be savored

(meaningful/entertaining/well written/these won't go to the used bookstore very fast)

Very highly recommended

4 stars - excellent/entertaining/highly recommended

3.5 stars - Better than average - very entertaining

(can recycle even soon after reading)

3 stars - average

(made waiting for the Dentist not so bad - give these out on the street)

2.5 stars - barely more than mediocre

(why even bother when there are so many great books to read)

2 stars - boring (may as well watch some reruns on TV)

1 star - does anyone spend enough time with a one star worthy book to even rate it??

0 stars - I have not yet finished it, or have not yet decided on a rating.

Oikea nimiSummer Lull

SijaintiGreat Pacific Northwest (Oregon)

hi there

DO you know why some books get a little green thing on the right side in the libraries, and some get yellow or orange? Let me know, if you will, I am new here. You sound like a very intersting person, do you want to be friends?
thanks
Hi! If you are still in Medford may I introduce you to our dear friend Jean Latham. (I can't visit her so please be my surrogate. She's a lovely literate lady. 528 Franquette St. / 541-772-3909.) You will enjoy each other! Esta Wolfram aka esta1923
Hi Summer. I know what you mean about this website being better than trawling the bookshops. I found your library quite inspiring and my wish list is now a bit longer than it was! There were also quite a few of your books that I have read but didn't put in my library as I have swapped them or given them away.

I only discovered Library Thing yesterday but think I will find myself spending too much time here! Am addicted to anything to do with books. Would love to have a look at some more libraries now and maybe expand my profile but really should be working!
Hi Summer, yes I did work at Helpline both as a volunteer and staff person. I knew a Olive, Olive Street, an Asian woman, when I worker there. Strange I was just thinking of her the other day. I was with Helpline for over 10 years, really enjoyed my time there. I wonder if we have any other shared friends? What sort of work do you do for Providence? I work for the VA as a legal assistant, before that I was a ward clerk at the VA hospital. Take care

Hi Summer, I was re reading my messages and saw your earlier message about living in Ashland. And you still live there! I miss Ashland. I went to Southern Oregon a number of times, first time from 1966 to 68, then joined the Air Force to avoid Vietnam which didn't work. After the military I returned to Ashland and lived there until the late 80's went I moved to Eugene for a couple of years then to Portland. Have you worked as a volunteer for Helpline in Southern Oregon. I wonder if that crisis telephone counseling service still exisits. I am going to be thinking about Ashland for the rest of the day.

Hi Summer, thank you for asking me to become a friend. Also thank you for your recommendation of When Nietzche Wept, I actually read that book a number of years ago. I gave away to social worker I worker with at the time, an attmept at a romantic bribe. Unknown to me, she already had a boyfriend. Oh well she did like the book. Welcome to lbrarything I really enjoy this web site. I discovered there a number of Portland and PNW members
Michael
Thanks for becoming a friend!
