Tietoja minustaI live in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and am married with 2 adult daughters. My husband and I are both retired, and both of us are reading more these days. When I'm not reading I enjoy knitting, music, and keeping fit.
I read mostly fiction and especially enjoy books by and about women, prizewinners, and classics (including Virago Modern Classics & Persephone Classics). I also enjoy intelligent, well-written mystery and suspense novels. I don't read as much non-fiction as I should but definitely appreciate narrative non-fiction and memoirs.
Tietoja kirjastostaniThis library consists of books I've read (tagged by year), or plan to read (tagged "tbr"). I don't own all of the books listed, and there are many in my home that I haven't cataloged. I try to review every book I read.
I track and talk about my reading in the 2021 75 Books Challenge group:
Part 1 | Part 2
