22 years of BookCrossing



Those years have brought me new books and more importantly, new friends that I never would have met if not for this wonderful site!!!

My reading tastes are eclectic but I favour historical fiction, books set in India or China (especially historical), mysteries (cozy, police procedural, English country - all kinds!!), historical true crime and conspiracy thrillers (think Da Vinci Code).

I rarely read romance or fantasy but have been known to indulge occasionally. The last few years I have been reading more non-fiction, mostly biographies or memoirs, but also science-y stuff in layman's terms, i.e. Sapiens.

I am always open to suggestions of new authors and titles!!
Feel free to email me at: [email protected] if you are in the Toronto/Hamilton/Niagara Falls, ON area and would like to meet up for coffee/trade books.
