Always an observer but never a poster, until now..

Hello all! My name is Mary and I am a complete bibliophile. I literally spent my childhood in the library in my little town. By the time I reached the age of twelve, I had read all the children's books as well as the young adult's in that library, again it was quite a small library. Now thirteen years later, I have my bachelor's in English and hope to enroll in the near future for a Master's in Library Science. Meanwhile, I work full-time and read on my nook as much as a person can. I own quite a bit (last count of physical books was 576) and enjoy them as if they were my own children, which I do not currently have.

The genres of books is almost anything. I always enjoyed the classics, of course as well as modern fiction based in America or England, but also searching for new authors or books. I do enjoy those women fictions books (not necessary chick-lit, as many call it, but more female lead fiction books). I never really was a fan of vampire books or any science-fiction books.

Okay, I think I said too much but I do hope to engage in great conversations about one of the most inspiring and fascinating hobby -- books! :)

It is really interesting to come across a new friend so much engaged in books and the fact that you were passionate about books and had a library to involve yourself in fascinates me all the more and this reminisces me of my boyhood in my little remote village, for in those days the only great things to take pride in were my little books I collected with much hardship. Now coming across you I feel I am revisiting my birth place and reliving the moments I treasure deeply in a world of small wonders and books. You will indeed enjoy our company here and will like to give you a grand welcome!!!
