Of course I've read more books than listed on my shelf but have just started adding them. I don't usually hold on to my books so can't remember most of them. :)

I like historical fiction, fantasy, mythology, science fiction, and other things. But I guess those my favorites.

    Hello! I noticed that you are a Shelfari member who lives in the DC area. Unfortunately, for whatever reason, a lot of the groups for DC residents don't appear to be very active, which is a shame because I'd like very much to connect with other DC-area book lovers.

    What I'd like to do is start a new DC group on Shelfari. It doesn't have to be a traditional "book group" where we choose a book and then read it. I'd like it to be more like a bulletin board that focuses on the rich DC book culture, where we can post upcoming events or talk about a book that's making waves around town or recommend different DC bookstores.

    However, before I start such a group, I'm trying to make sure that there is enough interest, and the group doesn't become just another inactive group on the pile. So I'm contacting members of these other groups and anyone who mentions that they live in the DC area to see if they'd be interested in taking part. You don't have to promise that you'll post every day; but I would ask that if you know something going on that others in the group would like to know about, you mention it in the group.

    Please contact me by Wednesday either way--if you are interested or not interested. If I get enough people who mention that they are interested, I will contact you about the group starting up so that you can join it.

    Thanks so much! Hope to hear from you soon!

    Oops...I meant book I just read. I had commented that it would make a good movie. I am SUCH a blonde sometimes... The name of the book is called 'Empires of Sand'

    That should be very interesting to find out. What are the titles?

    Hi Laura,
    I just wanted to welcome you to Play Book Tag (PBT) group. In this group monthly we pick a tag and read that genre. This month is "Africa". We read books about Africa, set in Africa, or written by African authors. Then we share our reviews with each other. Should you have any questions feel free to ask. We also have a Faq's thread going. Hope to see you chime in on the discussions and games. Everyone is really friendly and helpful.
