Age 30+ ... A Lifetime of Books: BEA: What I Look Like

Who AM I?

That's a good question ... I'm a daughter, a wife, a mother, a sister, a friend ... and there's so much more! But for the purpose of this blog I am a first and foremost a reader.

When I was in the first grade I read The Hobbit and my love of Fantasy took root. By the time I left elementary school I had completed the entire series as well as The Belgariad by David Eddings. Seventh grade brought me the beginning of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time series ... which is still not complete. High school and college introduced me to the classics and to history. My reading disappeared for several years when I had a child. Then I started a book club and it came back in full force.

Today I read anything that catches my eye ... at the moment that includes historical fiction, fantasy, literary fiction, and any titles I find interesting. I'm always on the lookout for the next great find ... any suggestions?

BEA: What I Look Like

I post pictures of myself on my blog all the time but just in case you haven't seen me before, here's what I look like so you can find me at BEA next week:

I'm on the right, but my hair is a little big longer now ...

This time I'm on the left, with Jenn from Jenn's Bookshelves - do you think I should bring that outfit to NYC? Thoughts?

I'm on the left, with Monica from Bibliophilic Book Blog ...

Me reading ... you know I'll be doing a lot of that during BEA!

If you see me, please do come up and say hello. Tell me about your blog, give me your business card, chat with me! I have a horrible memory, so please don't be offended if I don't recognize your blog (or your face!). I don't bite and I love to talk, so find me, introduce yourself, and let's talk books.
