Over mijn bibliotheek

I made a New Year's Resolution last year not to buy books but get them from the library instead. I do not have any more space so now I only buy books for the book groups I belong to and any books that I can't get through my local library which tends to be the non-fiction titles.

I have eclectic tastes and am willing to try most genre but love graphic novels, crime, sagas and books that are structured differently. I review most of the books that I read because I forget what I thought - sometimes if I have even read it - and this helps to jog my memory.

I am looking forward to meeting other readers and to getting to grips with LibraryThing.
