Extended Profile
I've read profusely since I was a child. I joined my first library at 6 years of age. As an adult, I visit the library at least twice a month, and buy a lot of books. But I've run out of space in my flat for books, so I need another way of finding them.
BookCrossing seems ideal!
I've been living in Finland for over 10 years, and the Helsinki City Council libraries have good English-language collections, but there are still books that are hard to find, simply because the market here is too small or does not exist. Hopefully BookCrossing will help me in my search.
I'm particularly interested in historical fiction (e.g. Michael Chabon), quality science-fiction (e.g. Dan Simmons), humour (e.g. John Irving), biographies, and anything in English by Finnish writers.
