Extended Profile
I have had 143 catches to date from wild releases (74 from OBCZs, 32 from LFLs, 37 truly wild).
My preference is for trade-size paperbacks. It's easier for me (and my hands) to handle than hardcovers and mass-market paperbacks. With the exception of Romance and Fantasy, I will read just about any genre though I am partial to literature/fiction and biographies.
