About meI'm a librarian who would like to be a cataloguer some of the time. I've catalogued all the books that I have downstairs (i.e. my Chalet Schools and all the books I've bought since October when we moved house).

The rest of my books (several thousand at least - I've no idea and am looking forward to finding out!) are either in our attic waiting till my husband has finished decorating or in my parent's attic waiting for us to win the lottery so we can buy a bigger house.

I'm desperate to put more books on librarything but have nothing to catalogue right now. Maybe I'll go and buy some more books...

14/06/2006 - I have changed my username from what it was before for various reasons that I won't go into!

About my libraryJust to record, I've reached the top taggers list with 6634 tags on 15/05/2006.

Noticed you liked Lovely Bones, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here, as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it also contains a young female narrator struggling with a series of tragic circumstances. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:

I've started a group thats dedicated just to discussing HP and the Deathly Hallows. its called HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS ONLY. We could all post about the last book there so that is will be contained and we won;t have to worry as much aobut spoilers. Join when you finish the book.

Dear chick-lit reader,

I’m a belgian university student that loves chick-lit. Would you like to help me with my thesis and write to me why you (personally) like reading chick-lit? What is it about chick-lit that appeals to you? What are your favourite books and why? Your help would mean a lot to me!

Best wishes,

Ester Wellens

Hi, Alice,

My reading plan is helping, but I must confess I fell off the wagon in a big way. I went to two library sales over the summer and bought about 100 books! That said, I have been sticking fairly well to the plan I mapped out, and I am making a dent in the pre-library-sale books, at least.

Thanks for your comment!
My biggest frustration is not having the time to just sit here and continuously catalogue all the books until I get to the last one (with food and loo breaks of course!).

Hi,

I was playing with my tags a lot yesterday, trying to increase the number and get them back in order (power editing does some strange things to tag order, unfortunately).

I wish I could afford more of the GGBP books, but the time they reach NZ they are very expensive. I have several Anotnia Forest's from them (highly recommended) and the Claire Mallory's, and One Monica Edwards (also highly recommeneded) and one chalet school book - Tom Tackles - the rest I've collected the hard way!

All my books are squashed in my bedroom, apart from the uncatalogued textbooks and picture books in boxes somewhere in the garage.
