- I only add books to my library that I'd want to read or reference over and over. Most of them are fiction, but I have non-fiction: a collection of religion books -- mostly from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints -- and selected books on poetry, grammar and writing, history, economy, self-improvement and knitting.
For fiction, I favor the classics, science fiction and fantasy (Orson Scott Card is a favorite), and books for children and teens.
If available, I purchase hardcover books for greater durability. Rare books, autographed copies and special editions are only of interest when I like the book itself.
I organize my books according to the Library of Congress catalog system. - Informazione su di me
- I'm the mother of a wonderful teenage son and the spokeswoman for a healthcare system in the United States. Basically, my job involves working with newspaper and television reporters who have questions about healthcare, hospitals or my organization. I'm also the editor for a health magazine that teaches people how to stay healthy or find treatment for health problems.
I love spending time with my family — grandparents, parents, five siblings and their families, and my son. My son and I both love cooking and trying new recipes. I love reading, music, travel, learning new things and spending time outdoors.
Last year I set a goal to teach myself to knit. I've always loved cabled sweaters and wanted to learn how to make them, with custom changes to fit my shape. So far I've made a baby blanket for a new niece, a cabled hooded scarf for another niece and a manly silk-and-wool scarf for my son. Now I'm working on my first pair of socks — ribbed, extra-long knee-highs in a pretty dark-blue wool, and my first sweater, a soft alpaca-wool blend in pale lavender.
I always turn to books when I'm learning something new. As I read, I also add the best to my library. So, you'll see quite a few knitting books in my recent additions. - Luogo
