Extended Profile
I've been an avid reader all my life, and remember spending every summer reading as many books as possible from the library--we never had a TV when I was a child! I'm also a terrible book-a-holic.
For 10 years now I've organized a book exchange at my kids' elementary school; I shop at thrift stores and yard sales, buying over 800 kids books each year so that every child gets 1"free" book at the book exchange...that way even if a child has no book to
trade, they still get the free one! The problem is I also bring home a "few" books for myself each time and now I have stacks of them. I've enjoyed many of them but some I'll never have time to read, so "off into the wild" they'll go.

The Lovely Bones
Life of Pi
Lucky: A Memoir
Pay it Forward
