About me:
I've been a book addict ever since I learned to read.
When I was about 15 or 16 I had read more or less the whole teen section of the public library in my town.
Since I discovered Bookcrossing, my reading addiction has become even stronger. At the beginning of my involvment with bookcrossing I hoped that it would help me organise my bookshelves and let go of books I know I won't read a second time and thus create free
space on my bookshelves. Little did I know the effects of BC! It actually has caused my mount TBR to grow uncontrollably and now I'm just struggling to keep it at a size where I can at least pretend to be in control.
The books on my bookshelf don't necessarily reflect my reading tastes. They're just the books I can bear to part with and books that have been temporarily in my possession as Bookrings, Bookrays, trades and the just-bought-to-release books.
I speak English / Ich spreche deutsch / Je parle français / Ech schwätzen lëtzebuergesch / Hablo español
You're interested in one/some of my books?
I normally do trades, at least within Europe. So if you find a book you'd like to read amoungst my avl books, don't hesitate to ask. In general I prefer an exchange book to being payed postage for the one I send, but then again, asking can do no harm :-)
