Extended Profile
I have a degree in literature, so after years of buying books for classes, what could be better than free books! Also, I get to release books I love and share them with others...
I normally read fiction or mysteries, but am trying to branch out.
I love cookbooks, books about cats, theories of counseling, education theory, and I'm willing to read just about anything else. I teach English and Women's Studies, so books on those topics are always welcome.
My Wish List
I've just started my first book ring! The book is The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards. It came very highly recommended by my mom! Here is the order so far:

Please journal the book, PM the next person for their address, and try to keep the book no longer than one month. Please also put your first name or screenname (whichever you are more comfortable sharing) in the back cover along with your location and date. It'll be a well-traveled book by the time we're all done! Above all, ENJOY!
