    Yeah, I've been on Shelfari for a while but I only recently became more active. I'm glad to find more active people on here and I look forward to seeing what books you add as you have great and diverse taste!

    You should check out Gore Vidal's Lincoln, or Empire, or Burr.

    Miranda H. has the best taste of anyone I know. And the most wide-open mind. And patience for books others, like me, would give up on. She teaches me things every day and that's why I'm marrying her.

    Hello! Just stumbling along looking for like minded readers. You favorite book list looks awesome, and I have only read two of those books so I have a lot of books to add to my reading list.

    Hello, and hope you are having fun reading and enjoying the site.

    Don't mind my saying, that's an excellent shot, Miranda.
    You never responded to me on my previous note; was the book based on Fibonacci?

    Hi. I saw on my "friends" page that you added this book ...on Symmetry and recurring patterns in nature. You probably know about it already, but it's probably based on Fibonacci ... even though he didn't mention it. At least it isn't mentioned in the review. Fibo, golden ratio, golden rectangle ... Leonardo is said to have used gold rectanlge relationships in laying out the Mona Lisa.
    Sorry, was just noticing and can't mind my own business !!

    Welcome to Better than Starbucks! Look around, make yourself at home, start a new thread or dig up an old one or just read and jump in on the more active ones.

    Good choices. I need to buy that Founders book. And Bradbury's classic continues to terrify me when my mind wanders late at night.
