Om mig I was born and raised in a small farm town in central Illinois, went to college in Utah, and moved to Phoenix, Arizona in 1976. I've worked for Target for the past 22+ years. I imported an Englishman I met online and got married for the first time in 2002. In my spare time, (besides reading), I like to travel, fix up this old ranch house, entice birds and butterflies to my property, take the Jeep Liberty out on trails in this beautiful state, work on my website, and photograph nature and landscapes.

You can see some of my photographs at http://cathyskye.myphotoalbum.com/

Om mit bibliotek I've been a voracious reader since the age of 4. I still have the Little Golden Books I was given as a baby--no teething marks or slobber, which proves that I was born with the passion. My library has somewhere in the neighborhood of 3,000 volumes, which is about all my house can hold comfortably. One of these days, I'll finish cataloging it and know the exact number. The subjects run the gamut, since I have an eclectic mind. My favorite fiction genre is mysteries.

Hi Cathy - I noticed Scott Young on your books right away... I found him long ago and I have two books... I am guessing there are more in Canada...but it mad me interested in the other Stan Jones especially the way you described it... I too am interested in place based stories... Also Johnson Craig sounds good... Thanks again... plus you motivated me to post some more books...

Hi Cathy thanks for taking the time to look at my books... I am going to check out you have and see what we might have in common.

Hey, Cathy!

That's awesome! I just saw his new book in the store two days ago and checked his website yesterday for tour dates. I'm sorry you missed him but I still have a chance here in L.A. July 1st. I'll let him know how you've helped out his sales (it was really hard to resist buying his book right then and there, but I always buy from the store doing the signing to support future events).

Take care,

bookstothesky

Hi Cathy,

Thanks for adding me to your interesting libraries list! We appear to have similar reading tastes. Where are you from in central Illinois? How do you like Phoenix? Your profile makes you sound adventurous, lively, and artistic! Thanks again for choosing me for your interesting libraries list.

Welcome fellow Outlander Fan! That sure is some library you have!
Too funny that you "imported an Englishman." Great sense of humor..:)

I just looked at your photos. Wow!!! I live in Phoenix and noticed you live in Arizona too. So I peaked at your profile and was blown away by your photos. Nice job. Do you freelance professionally?

Thanks,Cathy,we are managing to cope with the High Winds,which are still continuing,and to which are now added the extra pleasure of driving rain. Well it only goes to prove a point that the English like nothing so much as talking about the weather.
See you.

Hi Cathy,
Just a quick note to congratulate you on your Reviews.I especially like the way that you begin with the first line from each book,a clever idea which usually brings out the essence of the book quoted upon.
Best wishes.

Hey Cathy,

Glad you liked "Cold Dish." My streak of people who loved the book after my recommendation remains 100% intact:) The third book in the series just came out in trade paper a week or so ago (can't say much for the cover art, though, compared to the previous books'). The fourth book is due out toward the end of May and Johnson writes on his website that he'll have a larger tour this time due to the growing success of the books. He's a really nice guy, so if you have a chance to meet him I recommend it.

I'll keep an eye out for similar works and let you know if I find any.

Take it easy,

Hello Cathy,
Thought it was time I contacted you again as I was interested looking at your list of books tagged 'Architecture'. I have today acquired a fantastic book called 'England's Thousand Best Churches' by Simon Jenkins. One of his moans (which is also one of mine) is the large number of churches that after making a special journey to see the interiors,are closely locked and barred. I should have mentioned that church architecture and furnishings are one of my (other) interests.I don't know if you have found this on one of your visits here,or indeed if you find the same thing in America ? Or do the churches in your part of the world open in a more user-friendly fashion. Anyway I love having a look round when I can get in.One place I did get to recently was the city of York with the great Minster.Now that is something to behold and no mistake . There is certainly a whole load of history there and also in the same city we saw Cliffords Tower (part of the old castle) and the city walls,which are in a great state of preservation. Maybe though I'm telling you about somewhere that you have visited,being the traveller that you are.
Hope you are well and I send you both , all best wishes for Christmas and the New Year

Howdy,

I just saw your rather impressive list of author's/series' on Devenish's profile page. Really good information, I have to say, since there were more than a few books mentioned that I've never heard of, so I'll have fun investigating them. Thanks for taking the time to compile the list.

You wrote that you like mysteries with a Native American angle, so I thought I would recommend to you Craig Johnson's excellent series featuring Wyoming Sheriff Walt Longmire and his best friend Henry Standing Bear. The first book is called The Cold Dish. If you go to Craig's website www.craigallenjohnson.com you can find out about him, his books and Wyoming (some nice pictures, too, on various pages).

Thanks again for the list,

bookstothesky

Cathy,
Thanks very much for taking the time and trouble to compile the list of authors for me.It will come in useful for new ideas.
Let me know if you need the same from me any time.
Peter

Hello Cathy,
How are things in your part of the world.Having had a lovely look around your library listing I see that you have included in your authors Rebecca Stott,Paul Doherty and Ruth Dudley Edwards.A few weeks ago I met all three at a Book get together in my favourite Bookshop,Heffers in Cambridge. They were all very nice,and in particular Ruth was such a laugh. (just as one might imagine her from her Baroness Troutbeck books)
Oh by the way,can you give me any leads on a new American mystery writer.I should be able to get most publications from the aforesaid Heffers.
I see that we are now up to 320 books shared.Good going.
Regards (and to your husband)

Cathy,

I enjoyed your review of Dissolution, a book I also thought was excellent. I missed something that you caught--what was it that made the 'who done it' obvious to you?

(Because a women whacking a head off was the most unlikely and therefore the guilty party?)

Hello again
Good to hear from you,and indeed having looked over both your blog pages and your excellent photographs I feel that we are 'on the same wave-length'. Interesting to hear your comments regarding Bedford,as my wife and I visit fairly often.There is a super little bookshop on the edge of the town called "The Eagle Bookshop' which I am sure that you would love.We also like the town because it houses both the John Bunyan Museum and Meeting House and the Cecil Higgins Art Gallery and Museum.This latter has many exhibitions of a literary nature.In fact just a short while ago they held one about the Bloomsbury Group which was excellent.
Oh by the way I have just applied to add you to my 'Friends' listing,which I hope you will agree to.
All the best to you and your husband
Peter

Hello Cathy
I see that you have put me on your 'Interesting Libraries' listing. This is especially gratifying as I seem to be the first one on your list. Many thanks.
I hope that you find my Library list useful.I also see that we have no less than 310 books in common,including the superb "Oxford Companion to English Literature" Being greedy I own the Drabble version and also the earlier Paul Harvey version too.I usually go to this one first as it contains more of the older authors that I usually want to look up first.
I better say (in case you haven't looked at my profile page) that I live in the English midlands in a largish town called Northampton. Fairly near to London,Oxford,Cambridge,Bedford,Leiceste... and the like,so quite a good position for book-collecting.
Best wishes

I've just started listing books and have a long way to go. I see that we share one book. - Running through your 'A's" I saw a couple more but I don't know when I'll have time to list more of mine. - Best to you and your's - Paul -

Un fortunately I don't have ISBN numbers recorded Cathy, just titles and authors, and other metadata, so that is the ne dof that idea.

I haven't tried the import thing Cathy. Interesting that we share titles

Holy smokes! You really put a lot into your library, here. I think I have 15 added so far :o) Gotta start somewhere.

Hiya Cathy! I see we have 88 books in common so far--of course I'm still trying to get all the books I've read and either traded off or returned to the library entered, which is going to take a while--and I'm sure there'll be more that we have in common when I'm done. I see a few of my buds from other book groups who are pretty high up on your shared books list there, too.
