About meI'm 24, was born in Australia and currently live in Scotland. I like books and reading, London, travelling alone, falling snow, the Guardian Review, mangoes, watching clouds, Moleskine notebooks, bourbon, postcards, climbing hills, the British Museum, black and white photography, Fremantle, maps and Thai food.
About my libraryTragically my collection is split between three different countries (Scotland, Australia and England); I'm looking forward to the day when all my books are in one place.
My LT catalog only contains books I own (no wishlists, or CDs or DVDs).
Currently reading: The Scarlet Letter by Nathaniel Hawthorne; Colour by Victoria Finlay; Land of My Fathers by Gwynfor Evans

Thanks for your comments.
So where's YOUR list of favorite authors? I'd love to see who else is on it. How did you run across my favorites if they weren't linked to yours? I'm very new to LT and haven't sorted out all of those subtleties.
I cruised your author tags and noticed a John Buchan preference - he's another favorite of mine, but I'm never sure if my preference stems from my enjoyment of the Hitchcock adaptation of "The Thirty-nine Steps." I do love Robert Donat.

The envelope of Neohibolites from the Gault Clay in Bedfordshire stashed under my desk is in much better condition than the ammonite fragments from the Lower Greensand.
