Welcome to my Book Blog and a Little About Me!


Just a little note to say hi to anyone who stumbles upon this book blog. Hopefully you'll have some fun clicking around here.

The purpose of this blog is so I'd have one spot where I can see all my book lists, both things I've read, or am reading, and lists others have made.

Also, a place to keep track of my groups and what they are reading, and participate in challenges and keep track of all that entails.

But mostly, I hope to get some fun book discussions going, and let you know what I think about what I'm reading, and in turn to see what you think.


Oh, and then there'll be those time where I post about stuff NOT about books. Hopefully, you'll enjoy all that business too.


A little about me:
  • I'm a mom with four kids ages 23 to 14.
  • I work 12 hours a week at the library in the administration office.
  • I'm very involved in my church.
  • I run a book club consisting of neighborhood ladies.
  • Besides reading and blogging, I love to watch TV and movies, go to music concerts and Broadway shows, travel and geocaching.
  • I've also been known to quilt a bit, and scrapbook a bit.
  • Favorites include: Josh Groban, thunderstorms, chocolate chip cookies, jeans and t-shirts, Prison Break, authors, mountains, and open windows.
  • Unfavorites: the dentist, cuss words, being late, hot days, celery, heights, sick kids, diets and getting old.
  • Favorite bookish things: YA, classics, historical fiction, science fiction and fantasy, lists of all sorts, accessible authors, the Printz award, and Markus Zusak.
Let me know if you stop by and what you think!

  1. Great lists, I need to look at them closer but it looks like we've read a lot of the same stuff.

  2. Great idea! I have joined "Blogger" last year. It's about Hollywood stars I met. I will look up those list of books in this page later.

  3. Yep. There's nothing better than a book blog. What starts out as a personal mission soon provides interesting reading for other visitors.

  4. I love your blog, so much fun! I see that you have a book club, you might want to check out my latest book, Diary of a Beverly Hills Matchmaker. It is my memoir about my life behind the scenes matching the rich and wanna be famous... it is hilarious. There is a lot to discuss about how we see ourselves and others.

  6. Love your blog. I'd have to spend more time browsing all that you've written. I love reading books, just that I don't have much access to books so I do away with ebooks. I know I will learn here in your blog.

    keep it going!
