I live in Seattle. I recently graduated from nursing school and am starting work as a new RN. I have a BA in English literature. I will read anything, up to and including the back of a cereal box.

The books on my shelf are books that I've read, not necessarily books that I own. My reading list is of books that I want to read but... more »

    I love Bart Ehrman. Lots of good books. His most recent book is about losing his faith--after all those years of studying the Bible!

    Why post your own when you have so much Fabulous material to choose from? I almost used the one in which he looks like sleeping roadkill....

    I lucked upon your blog. I enjoy reading nursing/nursing student blogs. I am a RN working as Clinical Leader (nurse manager). I am also an avid reader (or used to be) so I followed your link here. Now I have my own shelf, but have been driving my boys crazy as they have not been able to get on the computer. Ha!

    Hey Emily -
    So far, of all the people who have books in common with me, you seem to have the highest percentage - about 20%! So it's been fun checking out your shelf. Great stuff, in my humble opinion!

    I'm new to shelfari, couldn't find a Kathy Reichs group. Is that possible? If I start one would you like to join?

    I lived for 7 years in Kansas while my husband and I were in the military. I'm originally from California, spent a year in Washington also...at Fort Lewis Air Force Base. LOL...now I live in North Carolina. I just thought it was funny how much we have in common!

    Long story that has nothing to do with books...but did you used to work at a coffee shop in Lawrence, Ks.? Your picture looks so familiar!

    Jonathan Lethem is coming to Seattle Arts & Lectures in April. You should go! Good to see a neighbor here. I'm near Green Lake. What's your favorite Seattle bookstore?

    I see that you have many of my books on your shelf. Would love to know what you thought of Inheritance....I love Indian writers but I felt ignorant of the post Imperial Nepal scene to truly enjoy thebook. The end was great...the return of the native to what is known even though its stifling!

    BTW, I don't know if I ever showed you the picture of myself that I'm using for Shelfari, but that's Tom Morello's eye in the upper right -- cracks me up every time I see it. I went to an Audioslave concert and he tried to take a picture of the two of us. As you can see, he missed, but it's one of my all time favorite 'what was it like to meet X rock star' moments.

    Yup, I'm certainly enjoying myself. :) I finished my profile and added 3 books to my reading list. I'm going to spend some time over the next few days adding reviews. Fun!
