That's me on the picture, many years ago, about the time when I became a reader. I haven't stopped since, and I plan on going on.
Now I'm a computer engineer working in Madrid--just moved out of my parents house and had to leave all my books behind :o(
Right now I'm getting all my reading material from the Internet, and loading it to my... more »

    We have a huge number of books in common. Give me time to build out my shelf. If this friendship request is premature, I understand if you decline.

    Hola B! Porqué no eres una buena chica y me actualizas mis lista de libros leídos? Ahh! y los que tengo en fila para leer... Me encantaría estar al día en esto, pero no tengo tiempo :o(
    Hola Josep! Saludos recibidos :o) Verás que no subo muchas fotos pero es que estas brujas me escapan en cuanto me ven con la cámara. Espero que todo te esté yendo bien :o) FELIZ AÑO!

    Hi Barbara the reading lover from Spain. If you like quirky books check this out. If not don't waste your time reading the rest of this. I had severe OCD, anxiety attacks, and depression for over thirty years but finally had enough and over came most of it. I wrote a quirky book called Man Interrupted that details how I did it. It's told in a funny way as in, "trying to confront my drug fears I end up having a drug dealer chasing me." I had all kinds of obsessions about germs etc. I would turn faucets off with my feet and so forth. Oscar winner Mel Brooks also has a nice blurb on the cover. Go to www.play.com to check it out as play also has free shipping to Spain. Let me know? I'm working on the screenplay now. best James.

    Oh, I liked the whole series. But everyone can't like the same book. I did get annoyed with bella's whining over Edward. But I can see where she was coming from. He was her first love and basically her whole life, and then she missed him when he left. Talk to you later!

    Hola!!
    unas vacaciones en casa pueden ser muy interesantes tambien, la cuestión es desconectar y pasarlo bien. Además, hay gente que ahorra todo el año para ir de vacaciones dónde tú vives..

    Estoy de acuerdo con que Ramon tiene que leer a Gerald Durrell!! de momento el muy pingo sigue de vacaciones, mientras mi aburrimiento va creciendo, pero el lunes ya estará por aquí.

    Hoy he empezado una recomendación tuya, Príncipes de Maine. Casi nos volvemos locos en la librería porque yo buscaba 'las normas de la casa de la sidra' pero aquí le habían cambiado el nombre. Menos mal que son amigas!

    Tal vez vaya a Madrid a dar una formación, pero puede que sólo un día. Bueno, tú qué me cuentas?

    To the desert island book question on the bibliophiles page- I was really torn about answering the Bible as my only choice for a book. I'm actually not extremely religious either, but I consider myself to be a "foxhole" Christian- ie when there is nowhere else to turn that's where I turn to, but only when backed in a corner-- does this make sense? and i guess that being trapped on a desert island would qualify as one of these events.
