Extended Profile
I am on goodreads.com and butterflycoins as Tintri. I am married to a man who does not enjoy reading (what?how?hunh?!) I have two wonderful little boys who enjoy being read to, the oldest of whom is discovering the joy of reading for himself. I like long walks (cliche, i know, but 4 hours along the shore or through the forest is just bliss), I'm learning to quilt and while I'm not very good at it, I do enjoy it. I'm hoping to get some BC action going up here, but not much luck so far.
My shelves don't always reflect my reading interests. I like crime thrillers, fantasy, historical romance, and some young adult fiction (don't judge me).

For what I'm reading now or have recently in the last year or two, check out Goodreads.

Oops, stopped keeping track a while back. Try to do better in 2007
The books I've read so far(2006) are not necessarily a true reflection of my reading taste. At the end of 2005 a room mate was moving out and left several boxes of books behind. I wanted to release them all, but feel guilty releasing a book I've not read. All of the para-romances fall into this category. That's not to say they were all bad. Some were ok or even entertaining, some were pure, unadulterated cheese. The historical fiction and crime/thrillers are more my taste.
