- About My Library
- I have a lot of genre fiction in paperback; classic fiction and current fiction I tend to find at the library (if you're a genre fiction reader you'll have noticed that these paperbacks are not replaced when they wear out, and so aren't there when I start hitting a back list or deciding to reread an old favorite). My library has a lot of (mostly unread) non-fiction titles, especially history and science. I'm in the process of separating myself from a lifetime's worth of obsessively collected cookbooks.
- About Me
- Female. 73 yo. Avid reader of genre fiction (not Westerns; in fact, mostly not western romances). Picky about mysteries and thrillers (noir, hard-boiled are rarely my picks, although I have read and enjoyed Robert Parker--the Spenser one--since the 60s; go figure). In sff I like a lot of fantasy (although I can come over very righteous about good vs. evil plots--too supportive of simplified visions or real life).
Married (excellent life style). One daughter (married, working, still a great reader; she was brung up rite). Sorry about that lapse into the vernacular; I'm really snotty & snobby about standard usage in writing, including, my dears, email writing.
I'm fairly obsessive (I suggest that all 6 non-obsessives on LT identify themselves). I try to be kind (that's my version of all 613 commandments), although if I think of a smart-ass thing to say, I'm apt to forget about being kind.
For me, everything since 1943 is current events. I used to be a liberal, but now that "liberal" is used for people that used to be moderate I'm probably closer to radical. I'm interested in pretty much everything. If I've left out anything you want to know, just ask.
