I'm a reseacher who shares her time between London and Finland. And I just happen to love reading... Yet due to my work I need to read a lot I'm not able to read other books as much as I would want to. This year the pace is even slower then before...

My favorite authors at the moment are John Irving, Margaret Atwood and Kate Atkinson. I'm also a Harry Potter, Twilight (ie. Stephenie Meyer) and Tolkien fan. All the books I've registered are available so please feel free to ask any one of them. Though I must note that I might ask you to return the ones in my permanent collection. With the ones marked as "to be read" it might take a moment before I will be able to release the book. But please try bear with this...
