Over mijn bibliotheek

I'm mostly through cataloguing my downstairs library at this point, but occasionally a book pops up that I missed. Almost everything I own is old, was bought used or with a bookstore employee discount or through our Native American offering of Penguin remainders.

Over mij

I'm a retired high school English and Latin teacher enjoying a fifteenth (I can't believe it!) year of reading. Unfortunately, I can't read just one book at a time, so it's a day for rejoicing when I actually finish something. Otherwise, I stay in and look after my mother who turned 102 in November, walk twice a day with husband, pet that husband and cats, and will eventually, maybe become a practicing pianist once more.

Relatively New Passion: IN DEATH that I Own
