Tietoja minusta3 obsessions:

TRAVEL: Here's a map of where I've been. Doesn't even begin to cover where I want to go...:


Map

MUSIC: All shapes and sizes. I try to be open minded, but I don't think I'm ever going to get the Bob Dylan thing. Or Coldplay (*shudder*). I did try to keep track of my gig going on lastfm, but it petered out. One day I'll start commenting on that too. Maybe.

BOOKS: See below!

Tietoja kirjastostaniStill not finished uploading all my books (not aided by the fact that I seem incapable of reducing my book buying habits, despite the massive unread pile I own), but getting there (very) slowly...

I'm mostly dormant on LibraryThing these days (keeping up in the 75 challenge group started to stress me out - and after all, this is supposed to be for fun!), but I do still drop by every now and then.

I have an account for my kindle books, to keep things separate and as there'll probably be a fair bit of overlap (particularly of the free classics!) - it's actually more up to date library-wise than this.

Here's my 75 books for 2014 ticker:



I was a member of the 75 challenge group for quite a while (and still check in every now and then) - my threads are here:

Diana Wynne Jones, my favourite childhood author (and still in my top five) sadly died in early 2011. In her honour (and because I wanted to anyway), I re-read all her fiction in publication order. I have a thread for this here. I stopped updating part way through, but I intend to come back to finish up one day (honest!)

I'm keeping track of my niece's library (principally so I don't give her the same books twice), here: http://www.librarything.com/profile/librapea

In 2009, I also took part in the 999 challenge (although I shamefully didn't finish it).
