I've been tinkering with the site tonight - upgrading from Wordpress 1.5.old to 2.0.new, finding widget-compatible themes, finding widgets, configuring widgets, and such.
Of course, it's late, I'm tired, and nothing I found has worked just right so far. So you get a view of Kubrick (bleh) until I can find a theme that reminds me of/looks just like my old theme.
Unsurprisingly, the letter R stands for reading in my world. I’ve been an avid reader for as long as I can remember. As a kid, while I was social and happy-go-lucky, we lived pretty far away from many other kids, so I had to keep myself entertained somehow. And it was Minnesota. Where winter lasts 6 months.
So I’m a reader. I can read until all hours of the night (well, morning, rather.) I can read almost anytime, with the sole exception of when I’m riding in a car. I can’t even read a map when I’m riding in a car (although, interestingly enough, I CAN read a map when I’m driving the car…) I can read things from many genres of literature. I read fiction, non-fiction, adult fiction, YA fiction, picture books, and just about everything in-between.
My recent reads are in my LibraryThing library - you can browse through it to see what I’ve been reading for the past few years, how I rate those books, and how I mentallly organize them with tags.
But there are books I read before I started tracking them on LibraryThing - books that really influenced me, or touched me, or that I read over and over and over again. Most of these, as you’ll see, share a YA orientation. They’re still amazing books.
What are your favorites? Share in the comments, or with a link to your Bibliophil or LibraryThing catalog.
