Hi! Welcome to my Bookshelf!

I've been sharing my books through several book swapping sites for more than 8 years now (since 2008.) That's how I got interested in BookCrossing -- I wanted to see where my books went! I used to have a link to a map here that showed where some of them were sent, but Google messed it up & discontinued that functionality. Sure was cool to see that map of the world with all the pins, tho! I miss it. :-(

Are you on LibraryThing yet? It's a great way to catalog your books! These are some of my keepers:

About me: I like to read mysteries / thrillers, historical fiction, hard science fiction, Christian fiction, & those big, multi-generational family sagas. No horror, no magic, no occult, no vampires, werewolves, or ghosts.

As far as interests go, I collect cookbooks & postage stamps. I love to receive wish list books, *wings* (love me some wings!), or BC supplies. Love coffee. And nail polish. And scented soap (love lavender or peach, not a fan of roses or vanilla). And colored gel pens. Thanks for looking.

Thought I'd make some tickers to see how I've been doing reading &/or passing along books I've received from other BookCrossers.
