Extended Profile
UPDATED: April 28, 2008
BACKGROUND: I heard about Bookcrossing in Mental Floss Magazine (great magazine, by the way). Before discovering bookcrossing, most of my books either:
(A) gathered dust after reading
(B) went to the Goodwill store
This is a lot more fun!
SOME FAVORITE AUTHORS: Tolkien, Neil Gaiman, Jane Austen, Susanna Clarke, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Gene Wolfe, Jasper Fforde
BOOKSHELF: Too many to count!
WISHLIST: None at the moment!
STARRED BOOKS LISTED BELOW will be released at some stage.
CURRENTLY READING:
The Audacity of Hope by Barak Obama (He's got my vote!)
Father Arseny--Memoir of a Russian Orthodox Priest improsioned in the Stalinist Death Cemps
**Fledgling by Octavia Butler**
JUST FINISHED:
The Stolen Child by Keith Donohue
**A Noble Radiance by Donna Leon**
**Prey by Michael Crichton**
Medicus by Ruth Downie
**The Tenderness of Wolves by Stef Penney**
**The Darwin Awards3**
The Wizard Knight Series by Gene Wolfe--I'm still debating on whether to release this set; if you've never read Wolfe, I highly recommend it
The Good Fairies of New York by Martin Millar
