Profession : Librarian
Professional Hero : THE Librarian from the Discworld novels (ook!)
Likes : books (yay!), folk/traditional music, ebaying, orangutans, Bollywood, Japanese horror films, arty films, plodding around museums, the theatre, London, Hello Kitty and other cutesy/kitsch Japanese stuff, discovering/learning new things. I am also
very keen on crafts and like to try my hand at new ones (except knitting which I have given up on - it's waaayyyy too stressful!)
Favourite books/authors : I'll give nearly anything a try. I love crime novels especially. Also love Terry Pratchett (obviously), books with an Indian setting/theme. I also like to sprinkle some non-fiction amongst the fiction (especially British history/folklore,
science/scepticism and the history of magic).
Originally joined Bookcrossing because : I think discovering a new author is the grooviest thing in the world.
Trading Books : I am more than happy to trade books if anyone likes the look of anything on my available or to be read shelves. I would obviously prefer to trade with people from the UK because of the postage costs. But I am happy to consider any requests
from elsewhere - there is no harm in asking!
Number of Wild Releases Caught : Errr, 10 (includes a double jumper).
