I read. I collect books. Books and reading have always been an important part of my life. I am a very young old lady. With my husband in the military for many years we traveled a lot. I have three grown children and they have each earned a degree with an English major. I have most of my education by osmosis.

    Thanks I will have to try Barbara Vine. She sounds like my type of author. I think I am also going to try Smillia's Sense of Snow. I saw it in book store today but I was not sure if it was worth buying???

    Hi! I’m from the Canada group, just popping by to let you know that we are trying to drum up interest in doing a group read. We have a thread started for anyone who is interested to let us know they are interested. Once we know there will be a few people, we’ll then decide on a book (Canadian author, of course!). Hope you decide to join us!

    You know when I lived in North Carolina I live on Roanoke Island. I just started the book you sent me and will start Roanoke after that. Maybe while I am sitting by the pool in AZ in a couple of weeks! Love Renee'

    I have been reading classics mostly for the last month of so; (I'm in the 1001 books group too!) but I plan to go back and forth since there are so many good historicals too. Will try to get to your recommendations ASAP.

    I also am a very young old lady which might explain the shared reading list. I think I will peruse your shelf and see what I missed. Hope the year is going well for you.l

    So glasd you have seen some of our great country, small by comparison I kn ow and there are some really grand places in America, by photos I have seen, but we all like our own country and have a penchant for other lands as well. Pity you did not see Stonehenge. i have seen it, but only form the distance of a roadside cafe. At that time no one was allowed near the stones ecept Druids at Solstice.
    Thos. Hardy country, well som e of that is not really a county, I expect you kn ow that but I have read som e of his bookas, the Mayor of Castorbridge being the latest one a few years ago, for my 'A' in Eng. Lit.
