La mia biblioteca
This is my personal research collection, the result of about 21 years' worth of obsessive bookshopping, in the USA and in Paris. French Revolution/18th-century France research; general reference useful for the mystery and historical fiction writer (no, I don't use those poison books for anything but polishing off fictional characters); books on writing; some of my collection of historical fiction set in the French Revolution. You won't find my complete fiction library here (you probably don't care how many Agatha Christies or Dorothy Sayers I own).

The historical research books are recommended as being full of juicy facts or highly readable or both. If a nonfiction book is no use to me or a drag to read, I sell it on eBay...therefore the keepers are, for the most part, the best of the best, rated for their general usefulness to me.

No rating means I haven't dipped into the book enough yet to judge its usefulness...or it's a novel I wrote myself, in which case it would be a little tacky.

At some point, when I have a little time (yeah right!)...I may get around to cataloguing all my cookbooks, from which readers can quickly get the idea that, while my primary obsession may be France from 1789 to 1799, my secondary one is definitely food, particularly when it features Thai curry paste!
