About meI work for LibraryThing, lucky me! I started out on LibraryThing for Libraries, although I've wandered over to help Abby on Early Reviewers, Author Chats, and various covert adventures. If you have a question or comment, know that emailing me is the way to contact me - I don't respond to comments very quickly. I'm sonya at librarything dot com.
Today I like old timey folk music, fresh bread and aged cheese, and the window open.
I have 1 sig.oth., 1 cat, 2 bikes, a food dehydrator and a lust for bargain-price produce.
About my libraryAs the daughter of a librarian, I'm a borrower - not a buyer. I wouldn't use the term 'exploit', but I do make good use of my public library.
From my days as a youth services librarian, I have a love of YA lit, and a penchance for noir picture books.
My nonfiction section is filled with knitting books, which I started purchasing as I began the Master Knitter certification.

Previously if asked what I was reading I'd grab the library books and list them/maybe even have a few recently picked up from bookstore/surely some from off-the-shelf that I was rereading for any reason.
Blame inflation, or the internet or the fact that most books being hyped do not interest me, but a life-long reader (truly) I'm not reading much these days. (For ER I have read and reviewed.) We heard Michael Chabon being interviewed on radio and "The Yiddish Policemen's Union" seemed to be a winner so I said that to my husband who hit the Amazon button and bought it AND "Kavalier & Clay" AND "The Mysteries of Pittsburgh." Whereupon I wailed that what I wanted was Hoban's "Fremder" from any bookseller who had it in ENGLISH (somehow most available copies are in Spanish!)
I haven't written a review but the Chabon has faults galore.
This to answer your query as to what I'm reading these days: only random bits from books pulled off our own shelves.
~~~~~I've posted new pix to Flickr (esta1923 there also) and oddly enough have had pix taken of me (sending alone). I'll be a better friend soooon! Esta

I actually found a Facebook app that someone else made and installed it -- it works well enough. I've paid my $25. Thanks for suggesting the site. I'm trying to get my friends on it now!
