Extended Profile


I've loved books and reading for as long as I can remember! I first fell in love with books and reading as a toddler when my mom would read Babar the Elephant books to me.

Once I learned to read on my own, I've became hooked on reading books in my free time.... I love mystery & thriller novels, fiction, and nonfiction books too.

I learned about Bookcrossing from my husband (who isn't an avid book reader by the way), when he'd read about it from one of his online news groups. I think Bookcrossing is the perfect venue to share and discuss books with other avid readers.

My screen name came about as the result of our family pet, Roxy, who is a very feisty, orange & cream colored Pomeranian! Roxy is such a sweetheart, plus very smart and very loyal.

Since then, we've added another addition to our Pomeranian family in 2008. Another sweet female we've named Koko, who enjoys nothing more than being held and cuddled in your arms. Koko is a chocolate colored Pomeranian.

Other interests include:

Traveling, collecting postcards, visiting museums, zoos & aquariums, attending theater events (plays, musicals, opera, book readings, recitals, symphony and dance performances when time and money allow!!) My new hobby for 2012 has been blogging to my new blog, devoted to all things book related!

According to the following two online surveys, I'm the following books:





You're One Hundred Years of Solitude!

by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Lonely and struggling, you've been around for a very long time.
Conflict has filled most of your life and torn apart nearly everyone you know. Yet there
is something majestic and even epic about your presence in the world. You love life all
the more for having seen its decimation. After all, it takes a village.

You're Slaughterhouse-Five!

by Kurt Vonnegut

An ardent critic of human beings and the way they choose to live,
you've had your life perspective significantly altered by the traumatic events of
your past. While that may sound like an obvious statement that's true of most
anyone, you constantly marvel at how few others react to their traumas with any
desire for change, let alone of a positive nature. This has made you fatalistic,
believing that maybe everything has already been worked out beforehand and that
everything is doomed to failure. After all, you've seen some awfully bleak things.
No wonder the world seems like a random amalgam of items chronologically disordered
and spilling out before you. When in doubt, hide in your basement.



Take the Book Quiz II
at the Blue Pyramid.







You Are Outgoing and Expressive



You love to communicate to and relate with others. Sharing stories and experiences is one of your favorite things in life.

You are an open and easy going person. You don't have many hang ups or inhibitions. You are who you are.



Your energy level is pretty high. You tend to be fairly calm when you're alone, but being in a group really makes you spark up.

Your signature latte would have the works in it. You're not above putting in a couple types of syrup and whipped cream. And heck, sprinkles too!







You Are Realistic Fiction



You are an outgoing person and very interested in others. You have many relationships that are important to you.

You are always willing to lend an ear to a friend with a problem. And you're even pretty good at giving advice!



Some may accuse you of loving drama, but you just seem to find yourself in the middle of it.

You are a true people person. You find the lives of others to be fascinating. You're up for hearing anyone's life story.









The Chocolate Oracle Says You're Classy



You are sophisticated, modern, and high class.

Your taste is refined, but you are not picky.

You are often the first to try something new.



You are mellow, spiritual, and philosophical.

You are a true humanitarian. You enjoy helping people.

Your heart can be too open at times. You sometimes over-extend yourself.



You love being around people. Friendships are important to you.

You feel lost when you're by yourself... so you tend to avoid being alone.








You Are White Tea



You are quite delicate and very sensitive. You are easily overwhelmed.

Peace and serenity are important to you. You shy away from intensity of any sort.



You appreciate a simple quiet moment. You can relax easily without feeling bored.

You take the time to enjoy life. Even when things are busy, you make the time.





You are The Hermit


Prudence, Caution, Deliberation.


The Hermit points to all things hidden, such as knowledge and inspiration,hidden enemies. The illumination is from within, and retirement from participation in current events.


The Hermit is a card of introspection, analysis and, well, virginity. You do not desire to socialize; the card indicates, instead, a desire for peace and solitude. You prefer to take the time to think, organize, ruminate, take stock. There may be feelings of frustration and discontent but these feelings eventually lead to enlightenment, illumination, clarity.


The Hermit represents a wise, inspirational person, friend, teacher, therapist. This a person who can shine a light on things that were previously mysterious and confusing.

The surveys are fun to take, not that they accurately predict my personality!!
