Hello, I like to read science fiction (hard) and fantasy books, (any) also some historical fiction. My favorite character next to Samwise is Miles Vorkosigan in his Admiral Naismith persona. I think this is a great idea for a web site and I love the concept. I think my favorite book of all time is the LOTR series. I remember reading it at my sister's in Vallejo, CA during the 70's and how I loved it. Enough to read it about 10 times. Books marked with a PC in the journal entries or book details are ones I can't give up yet.

I live in Wyoming on a small acreage (6.6) with my husband of 27 yrs, 3 cats, 2 horses and a JRT/rat terrier mix. The mare I am on is Skeeter, my Appy mare that died 2 years ago at age 30. I miss her still. We all get on really well except for our female cat Baggy, who likes to beat up on Oliver and Samwise. They all try to get out of her way when she is in the immediate vicinity. All the cats, except for Oliver tolerate Reo now that he's grown some. He's a ball of fire and can be quite annoying as only terriers can be. He loves to chase rabbits and go for car rides and walks.

Poor Reo is now 3-legged after a horrible accident with the sickle bar mower. He ran right in front of it and got his left front leg cut off at the wrist. He is doing great now after his amputation.

I like to watch the sci-fi shows on television-Stargate SG-1,(which has been canceled!) Star Trek TNG reruns, Babylon5, Stargate Atlantis, Firefly and Farscape (hooray for Netfix, they have them all on dvd).The HBO series From the Earth to the Moon was great too.

I had a couple of books caught and journaled by anonymous finders! What a good feeling that is! One that was caught in Glenrock joined bookcrossing! Got a book journaled after 2 years!

If anyone sees anything they like on my shelf, please PM me I'll try and send the book on.

Well, I usually don't know what I really want to read until I'm in a bookstore looking at books. I did find a few I would like to read though:

The Antelope Wife by Louise edrdich
Sister Noon Karen Joy Fowler

To the participants in the various rings I have going: Please journal the book when you get it, when you send it to the next person and try not to hold on to it for months at a time. Other people would like to read it too.
This book appears to have been lost in transit. Sorry people.
