About Me
- Christine
- I often have a few books with bookmarks in them at once. I enjoy classics more than contemporary works of fiction, often read historical fiction, and love to get glimpses into other people's lives by reading memoirs and biographies.

Zippy!!!!
*beleaguered sigh* Of COURSE he is.
I'm going to say I'm thankful for all of the books I own that I HAVEN'T read yet, so that I always have something to fall back on when I don't have anything to read.*
*not bloody likely
I'm thankful for the big stack of cookbooks and travel books that I have checked out from the library right now.
I'm thankful for the four books I bought at a used bookstore that are sitting on my coffee table; books that I'll probably read during Christmas break after finishing the Palin book (Night by Elie Wiesel, Orwell's 1984 and Animal Farm, and Heller's Catch-22). I'm also thankful for my job at B&N which affords us so many reader perks! :D
(p.s. Thanks, Don, for the tip on the Name/URL option which for some reason I have been overlooking all this time.)
I'm also grateful for Advanced Reader's Copies of books that I sometimes stumble upon at B&N--things that I otherwise might not have seen. Two very favorites have been Trail of Crumbs by Kim Sunee and The Anthologist by Nicholson Baker.
I'm thankful for textbooks I can fake having read after a quick skim...I know that makes me a bad person.
