Our little bundle of joy arrived early, on Dec. 22, 2008 :) Since then, needless to say, my life has been drastically different!! I don't know how much I'll keep up with BC for a while, but I hope to get back into it someday!

Hello Fellow Book Lovers!
I am so enjoying being a member of BookCrossing! The library, and bookstores - both new and used, have always been some of my favorite places. So when I found out that I could make new friends who are fans of literature here, I jumped at the chance to join!
A little bit about me... I grew up in a small town, went to college in a small town, and moved to another small town with my husband right after college. Now we've moved to Philadelphia - not exactly a small town!! But I'm really enjoying it. So we rented a house, me, him, and our fuzzy baby Toby-the-cat, and we're starting a new adventure! I look forward especially to getting more involved with releasing books in the wild, and maybe even going to a meet-up to actually meet some other BC'ers!
My favorite books to read vary from mysteries to chick lit, and especially popular fiction. I always have a stack of things waiting to be read!
I am very willing to trade, so feel free to PM me and ask about anything marked available on my shelf! (Though right now I can only ship within the US.)
Have a great day, and happy reading!! :)

My PM's have been unreliable lately... if you are trying to reach me and cannot, feel free to email me at bluelady17 at aim dot com. Thanks!

In 2005 I completed 81 books!! In 2006 my goal was 52, and I completed 56! In 2007, I hoped for 52 books, and completed 60!
