- About My Library
- About Me
I love books -- many types of books -- geology, genetics, astronomy, other science, science fiction, fantasy, history, geneology, and children's literature. I've started adding my husband's books into my catalogue, so action/adventure/mystery books are probably his.
"Even in this world of course it is the stupidest children who are most childish and the stupidest grown-ups who are most grown-up."
