Kia ora, thanks for visiting! My BookCrossing shelf doesn't reflect my tastes particularly well, but if any of it reflects yours and you'd like to talk about it or request a book, you're more than welcome to send me a message. It's always a treat to hear from other BookCrossers.

A bit about me:
I was introduced to BookCrossing back in 2007 by Mochagirl when we were both living in Melbourne. I instantly loved the idea of it, as it meshed so well with my fondness for books, my frugal and nomadic tendencies, and my enjoyment of interactive grassroots projects.
Sadly, I don't read as much as I would like to these days, and I seem to be an increasingly slow and easily distracted reader. Books have always been a much-loved part of my life, though, since before I could even read them. I was one of those children who wouldn't go to bed unless my parents had read at least a few different stories to me, and when I discovered, at age 4 or 5, that we wouldn't be learning how to read until the next year in school, I insisted that my grandmother teach me at home instead. I also grew up with the privilege of having a mother who worked in bookshops for most of my life, and she continues to share her delight in books with me to this day.
