Acerca de míI live in Purcellville, Virginia and am married with 2 adult daughters. My husband and I are both retired, and both of us are reading more these days. When I'm not reading I enjoy knitting, gardening, cooking/baking, and music of just about any genre.

I read mostly fiction and especially enjoy books by and about women, prizewinners, and classics (including Virago Modern Classics & Persephone Classics). I also enjoy intelligent, well-written mystery and suspense novels. I don't read as much non-fiction as I should but definitely appreciate narrative non-fiction and memoirs.

Acerca de mi bibliotecaThis library consists of books I've read (tagged by year), or plan to read (tagged "tbr"). I don't own all of the books listed, and there are many in my home that I haven't cataloged. I try to review every book I read.

I track and talk about my reading in the 2021 75 Books Challenge group:
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5 | Part 6

my Wiki Page is an archive of links to personal threads from a variety of LT groups and group reads, past & present.
