I am a working mother of 3 girls. My only real hobby is reading; love, love, love it! I devour books, I like mostly fiction. I'm starting to read more of the classics and are enjoying them thoroughly. I have recently added all my books here, but have not gone through the process of rating all yet. Excited to have found this site!

    Welcome to 1001 books. You can keep track of the books you have read from the book, 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die, join in the discussions on the books we are reading for the month (BOTM) or you can debate the merits of the list as some enjoy doing. We hope you will want to join in the choosing of BOTM and the discussions. The current books are pinned to the top for that month. There are older discussions that can be found by searching discussions. If there is any way the group administrator can help further feel free to ask one of us. If you don’t own the book the list can be found at the top in the group description or at http://www.listology.com/content_show.cfm?content_id=22845. A downloadable list of the second edition is available at http://johnandsheena.co.uk/books/?

    So, I just finished reading the 13th tale and I totally agree with you about the ending. I guess that because it's a book I'll say that it is plausible but it just seems silly to me. I was all excited on how they were going to explain everything and wrap it all up and it's like they just made something up totally out of the blue and said "there, we made something up that we guess could probably, on some universe, work so we're done. k thanks. bye"

    Thanks so much for accepting my friend request. While I have you here, I was wondering . . . would you be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here (as well as on a few other book-related sites). I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

    Thanks,

    That would be great. I'll stop by and borrow it once I get through the four I have sitting on my bedside table :)

    I've just started reading The Red Tent! I'm hooked! Thank you for borrowing it to me! It took me a bit to pick it up but just thought about it again and thought what the hell! Within the first couple pages I was hooked!!! Just wondering if you read or watched Wicked and what you thought? Just got done and not sure I liked it!

    Hey, thank you! I have a library copy right now (checked it out on Sat, have it for 4 weeks) but I am just starting "Duma Key" by Stephen King and then also have "Ireland" by Frank Delaney on my list for the next month. I'll let you know if I don't get to Owen Meany before I have to return it. You should read it soon and then tell me if I should read it. It will save me time. k thnx bye

    You are correct. Harps have fallen out of favor over the last 150 years, so don't feel bad. But, I love them seeing as how they're associated with the image of Ireland. Just keep my crazy obsession in mind, and the strange questions will always be answered as "Ireland", "Irish", or "Emerald Isle".
