Om meg I have a B.A. in Philanthropic Studies and work as a fundraising database/software administrator.

I greatly enjoy travel, both domestic and international. When I'm at home you can probably find me reading, writing, knitting, or watching some historical drama.

Check out my webpage or LiveJournal for more of about my daily life and such. For those wondering about my icon photo - that's me - made out of all the book covers in my library.

Om biblioteket mitt At this point in my life, I find myself with a "safe house" for homeless books. I just can't turn them away. As long as its not a trashy romance, its probably found a home on my shelves and in my heart. My one big thing is religious books, be they bibles or texts on druid spells - I just can't let them go to charity or see them thrown away.

I have a not-so-secret passion for "brain candy" egyptian historical fiction and women in history.

Enough about me, where can I find you?

I like the concept of a house for homeless books. I have often pictured myself standing on a streetcorner, holding up a sign that said "Will Read For Food".

I tracked you cause you and I are the only ones who have Bill Nye's books. I actually have two copies of it, one has the cover put on upside down!
So... how did you make that icon, exactly? What a cool idea. I relate to it.

Happy New Year!

postet av dodger kl. 2:46 am (EST) den Jan 1, 2008

yes, it is a small world! we have a lot of books in common as well.

OMG, someone else has read "The Heart of the Fire." Marry me.

a little "bonjour" from my historical fictions books.do you read french? i've added you to my watch list ;-)

postet av kanichat kl. 12:25 am (EST) den Aug 18, 2007

LOL. I should have warned you that it was potentially hazardous--my apologies! I figured, though, that a little coffee snort would be worth it! ;-)

Hey there,

You probably need to look at this thread!: librarything.com/talktopic.php?topic=144...

I think you’ll enjoy it! Take care.

postet av dodger kl. 4:51 am (EST) den Jun 19, 2007

Just thought I would drop in and say hi.
We share 25 books and I am new to LT so no doubt that will increase.
One of the books we share is the sultans harem, just picked it up today at a local bookcrossing zone, looking forward to reading it.
Have you thought about reading any Aussie Historical Fiction?
Just finished reading The Secret River by Kate Granville and loved it, although, I'm not sure if I enjoyed it more because it is a local work.

postet av KimB kl. 10:15 pm (EST) den Jun 18, 2007

I love that the first half of the works we share are dvds! You're the first person I've shared more than 2 dvds with...we share 35.

I added a note in the 'about me' that may explain why I rate things so highly. So check out my profile. As for Genizah, it has recently won the Sami Rohr Prize, the largest monetary award for Jewish literature in the US and maybe in the world, $100,000US. I am not that up on awards. All I know is few people recognize this book. Why did you like it? What personal chord was touched? This book is veiled by many stories, whether you are into history, religion, family dynamics, or relationships/life. Did it take you somewhere else?

I used to work as an EE and now I work (volunteer) in non-profit...we have swapped! You used to work nfp and now you are a techie.

Do you write ?

postet av yareader2 kl. 4:15 pm (EST) den Apr 7, 2007

I've just joined and my list is small but growing. I only really like to put up books that take my breath away. I have a few things I would like to discuss with you. One, 'Genizah...'by Tamar Yellin, and the other is your role as a hired gun for nonprofits. If you are not too busy, I'm around.

postet av yareader2 kl. 7:01 pm (EST) den Apr 6, 2007

Thank you so much for the invitation...when life calms down a little it will be fun to explore the group!

Thanks again for thinking of me!

postet av mjwensel kl. 11:26 am (EST) den Sep 21, 2006

I feel the same way. I especially love the Aspen/Snowmass area, and the Boulder area; I visit them often. I have traveled to a good number of other places in this world, and Colorado is still at the top of my favorite places list. I am lucky to live here! However, if the opportunity arose, I would definitely move to Ireland, and I am quite fond of New England as well, (New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine specifically).

postet av dodger kl. 4:46 am (EST) den Aug 14, 2006

LOL, ours is an eclectic list of shared books. Homer, Thoreau, and Thompson...if that isn’t the makings of a great library, I don’t know what is!

postet av dodger kl. 7:20 pm (EST) den Aug 12, 2006

Wow- only us two? I really enjoyed The Oracle Glass! Have you read The Crimson Petal and the White by Michel Faber? It's great!

postet av ilex011 kl. 10:50 pm (EST) den Aug 2, 2006

Mm, yes, I was a proofreading contractor for that company . . . seems like a long time ago now. So I'd be the one to blame for any typos. (I wouldn't have minded if I'd also acquired a subliminal understanding of accounting after reading all those textbooks, but it doesn't seem to work that way. Phoo. :)

Thanks for the tag! I won the Cookie Sutra in a food blogging cookie contest, and I just love the humour.

postet av paige_eliz kl. 1:11 am (EST) den Jul 20, 2006

Yes, I'm also a sucker for historical fiction. It's so much easier to get through that basic history stories; it so much more interesting when you get a character to root for.

postet av Haven kl. 6:58 am (EST) den Jun 23, 2006

Yes, I loved Gulland's Josephine trilogy, and I Philippa Gregory is one of my favorites. Have you seen she is coming out with a new book this winter? I was on her website, and now Im incredibly excited because she is actually going to be touring in my city!

postet av ms_fairypants kl. 12:29 am (EST) den Jun 20, 2006

Thanks for the message! I have long been addicted to the Peabody/Emerson books. The early ones had always been my favorites, but in the more recent novels there is now an added interest: my grandfather, who was born and raised in Egypt, is exactly the age of Nefret and Ramses's twins. So I like to imagine my bookish grandfather (who is rather more like the elder Walter Emerson) being mixed up in the Emersons' adventures.

Your appreciation of the beauty of the Badlands is shared by many in our family. I had the good fortune of studying part of the area a few years back.

postet av rckepf kl. 10:54 pm (EST) den Jun 16, 2006

I liked the book about the Badlands, too. I often pick up little books like that at national parks. Have you read Bad Land by Jonathan Raban? Its about the area of Montana just NW of the Black Hills which is similar terrain but was once farmed with sad result. Interesting history of a beautiful but harsh area.

postet av marmot kl. 7:12 pm (EST) den Jun 15, 2006

I don't know if I could really be called a "fan" of Phillippa Gregory or Sandra Gulland as I've only read one of their books each! Haha :-) But I do plan on finishing Gulland's Josephine B. trilogy- I LOVE the period of the French Revolution! I didn't like Gregory as much as most people seem to like her, though. I did really like Emma Donoghu's novels, which I see you rated highly as well. And Manda Scott's Boudica books. And afer browsing your library, I've added Morgan Llewelyn to my "to watch" list. I've heard a lot about her, but never read anything by her.

postet av aarti kl. 11:56 am (EST) den Jun 15, 2006

Philanthropic studies?! Very cool! My first job out of college was working as a non-profit fundraiser! We have some books in common -- I was pleased to see Akhenaten -- so few read Mahfouz, esp beyond the Cairo Trilogy.

postet av daykeeper kl. 3:57 pm (EST) den Apr 28, 2006

If you like historical fiction you should read Sharon Penman, I am in love with her right now!

postet av Kailana kl. 12:12 pm (EST) den Apr 18, 2006

Yes, I love her books! I think there are a couple I don't have, but not many. I guess I need to do a
search for what else is available.

Whoohoo! Another fan of Egyptian books! Love your collection! We share many of the same titles! ;) Don't you just love Christian Jacq? I've not read most of the others, yet, but have plans to. Many are on my wishlist.
