I'm a bibliophile of the first order--I love books--all kinds of books. History, religion & law are among my passionate personal interests. My bookshelf includes 1) books I own (some of them--my personal library holds several thousand volumes) and 2) books I've read in whole or in part from the library or from others & which I liked and 3)... more »

    It'll take a while to get thru your Shelf as presently configured - I'll have to make better use of Tags, like you - the reason I suggested "Mysteries of the Middle Ages" was because of your interest in feminism; hope you'll take a look; it's similar to "Female Man of God" & "Friendship of Women" conceptually - I'll take a look at "A Cherokee Feast of Days"; really tough to see what has happened to the Cherokees on the res with their myriad health issues; have you ever seen "Unto These Hills"? - just saw the book on Thurgood Marshall; my Aunt & his family were neighbors in the 1940s.

    Greetings AbigailGrace - you're a prolific reader! - I was only able to review your first 267 books; it'll take a while for the rest - but Yes, I do like Elaine Pagels' writing - I first encountered her when she appeared on one of the PBS shows - I'll have to take a peek at "This Female Man of God" as time permits - a somewhat similarly-themed book is "Mysteries of the Middle Ages" - you might also find "The Eight" to be a good read; it's one of my all-time favorites! Regards.

    Hi AbigailGrace, I have read all the Nancy Drew books besides about four, although after I read all of them, I might read some of the Hardy Boys books and see what they are like. My very favorite Nancy Drew book has to be The Hidden Staircase and my second favorite is probably The clue of the tapping heels. I like the ones with secret passages and hidden rooms, which is why I like those.
    School is very good, I get the whole week off, Yay! I am curentlly reading a book called Deep and Dark and Dangerous, although even though it sounds scary, it really isn't. It is a mixture of mystery, the past, and a little suspence. Write me back, bye

    Wow, it has been some time since I visited your shelves. You have surpassed me in number, and very interesting additions. I was prompted to see what was new, besides your avatar which I love. How all is well. Happy reading.

    My sincere apologies for being away from Shelfari for so long! I've been involved with other lists, and a lot of preparation for gardening has kept me busy.

    I'll answer your posts asap.
