La mia biblioteca: I decided just to do books that I loved (or at least really liked), books I mean to read, and books that come highly recommended to me (often by library patrons) that might not be the kind of book I would read but that would be good to recommend to patrons whose reading tastes are different from mine.
Informazione su di me: Notoriously last minute about choosing books to take on vacation; frequently disagree with reviews; gravitate to novels with a strong psychological element; love humour, vivid landscapes, nature, environmental issues.
Autori preferiti: Ian McEwan
