I have been an avid reader for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my favorite activity was to shut myself in my closet with a flashlight and read. My dream of having my own library has come true!! We turned one of our upstairs bedrooms into a library with a cozy sitting area. This is now my favorite room of the house.
In August 2006, I was "searching" for a phone number and saw a link regarding a book release at a local grocery store. I clicked the link to find out about this "book release" and discovered BookCrossing.Com. I am now completely, utterly addicted!!!

Currently Reading: "Travelling to Infinity" by Jane Hawking
Challenge Read: "War and Peace" by Leo Tolstoy

If you are interested in something that is sitting available on my bookshelf I am willing to arrange a trade (or I may just send it, depending on situation!!). If there is something on my TBR pile that you are interested in, just let me know...I will get it read to trade or send along. There are a few books that I may be talked out of in my Permanent Collection as well so have a look around and it never hurts to ask as long as it is done nicely!!!
