Om migI am a full-time copyeditor, a part-time theology student, and a constant reader.

Om mit bibliotekMy collection here at LT contains all the books I've read in recent years, all the books I own, and some that I just want to read.

I have a pretty small house, so as a general rule I only keep books that I expect I'll want to reread, that I want to keep for reference, or that complete a set. Currently, I have collected several shelves full of books that I haven't actually read because I keep getting distracted by new finds at the library, so I have a large TBR stack that I'm trying to do most of my reading from at present. As I work through my TBRs I'll be trading them away at Bookmooch and Paperbackswap, and giving them away on my blog.

Teresa,

I saw your review of Classics for Pleasure by Michael Dirda. I am a librarian with Montgomery County Public Libraries, and luckily was able to get Mr. Dirda to appear at White Oak Library in Silver Spring on December 16, 2009 at 7 pm. He will discuss Classics for Pleasure and his work reviewing books for The Washington Post. Books will be available for sale. More information can be found by going to the MCPL website and clicking on the "Meet the Author" link in the Spotlight section. www.montgomerycountymd.gov/library

Or check the Librarything.com page for White Oak Library in Silver Spring.

Please consider attending. It should be an interesting evening.

I just wanted you to know that I appreciated your review of "Middlesex". I had much the same reactions to the book as you did and liked your treatment in the review. Awesome.

love your review of Oryx.. really want to reread it now!

Whoa thanks for adding me to your interesting libraries.

I read some more of your reviews and it seems that we are in agreement about many books we have both read. I totally agree with your assessment of Never Let Me Go. I absolutely loved it and the fact that its contemporary rather than futurist made it even easier to relate to.

I also LOVED your review of Persuasion:
This novel demonstrates the power of the tiniest movement between lovers. A flick of the eye or a turn of the head can be pregnant with meaning. Anne scrutinizes every move that Captain Wentworth makes and every word that he says. Any woman who has had a crush knows this experience. When the object of our affection is in the room, can we ever be fully aware of anything else? Austen’s ability to capture the tension inherent in encounters between potential lovers is, I think, one of the things that makes her novels so popular today. Even knowing how the novel would end, I felt Anne’s tension. That’s how good the writing is. All I can say is amen!!!

I really enjoyed your review of Deliverance Dane. I too had much the same issues as you did with it.

Hi Teresa,

Just to let you know I posted Good Behaviour today. Hope you don't have too long to wait for it!

Hi Teresa,

Posting to the U.S no problem at all. I'm planning to read my copy of Good Behaviour soon so we may well end up reading it as the same time!

Good luck with your future Virago searching!

Hi Teresa, Thank you for reading my blog, and particularly for commenting. I really, really appreciate it.

I do read Shelf love most days too, and yours/Jenny's was one of the first to be added to my blogroll when I started - could I ask you a favour to add mine to yours - thanks in anticipation.

I've added you to my interesting libraries, and one day when I have a bit more time I promise I'll explore in a bit more detail.

Cheers
Annabel

Well, I hope you do like the books and I hope you get them soon!

Yeah, I also noticed both Persepolis books were recommended or bought for Secret Santa folks. It kills me to be part of popular trend, I have to admit Marjane Satrapi is a good writer.

The only thing I hate about the book is not knowing how things turned out. Like I wonder what happened to the young lady who was the family maid. The one who fell in love with a boy across the way. A few pages later, they have a middle aged woman maid. So we never found out what happened to the young woman when the flirtation ended.

Or maybe I just haven't read far enough.

Thanks for recommending The Complete Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi for me to my Secret Santa. Thank goodness she didn't pick this book after all. I was going to get it for my own Secret Santa recipient but I liked it so much I ran out and bought it for myself. I am enjoying the book quite a bit.

What a good picker you are.

skrevet af devans00 kl. 1:27 am (EST) den Dec 29, 2008

Hi, I think you were my secret santa - if so, thank you! I loved Persepolis 2, and Payback looks like it is going to be great too. Thanks again, and hope you had a great time over the holidays. Happy New Years.
