O mnieHello! My name is Marie. I'm a twenty-something year old residing in Tucson, Arizona, by way of a handful of other places I have lived. I have my degree in art history and currently work in a museum. I am an avid reader with eclectic tastes. I go through phases of history, science fiction, classic literature and whatever else seems worth reading about.

I love a good recommendation!

O mojej biblioteceI try to encompass everything I have read or would like to in the future. Keeping a wish list helps me remember what to pick up from the book store. If a book is labeled 'your library' it means that I physically own it. I only rate a book when I have completed it.

My Rating System:
★ - Disaster.
★★ - Meh. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good.
★★★ - Enjoyable.
★★★★ - I thought about it for days afterward...
★★★★★ - A favorite! I'll be reading it again.

Here is a list of my ongoing & completed challenges:
2009:
50 Book Challenge in 2009
2010:
75 Book Challenge in 2010

I know what you mean about Anne changing. It's inevitable of course, but sad.

However, you must persevere! Rilla of Ingleside has a completely different feel from the rest of the series, as it is set during WWI. I really love that one, and it vies with the first one for my favorite. Anne of Ingleside is probably my least favorite (though of course it's good); the kids are too young to be really interesting and Anne is in her mom mode, and there just isn't a lot that happens. Rainbow Valley picks up quite a bit because the kids' shenanigans get in full swing. And then Rilla of Ingleside gets this global view, after the small insular world of Four Winds/Canada, that really shows the characters in their historical context — without losing the small-town chumminess and community that makes the books work.

Rilla is also one of the funnier ones! There is a scene that never fails to make me laugh. Susan is priceless. I don't want to spoiler it though!

And great, now I want to reread really badly...

Hi mihess, and thanks for the interesting library add! Yours is fascinating as well. It's nice to see you in the salon as well.

I see you recently rated Anne's House of Dreams four stars. That's probably what I would give it. I have been toying with the idea of rereading the series with an eye to serious reviewing, but I'm not sure I can commit! Les Mis is looming in December, and if I reread the Anne books I want to do all of them straight through. Life is just too busy sometimes.

Well, haven't met a classic I haven't liked yet! Actually I'm a sucker for anything nice and clean. No violence or explicit sex for me! Sometimes I feel like a 60-something stuck in a 20-something body. After joining LT I've been tempted to read some modern books and I'm sorry to say that I haven't enjoyed most of them. So, it's mostly classics (and cozy mysteries!) for me. And you are welcome about the Salon group welcome! :-)

Hi! Thank you for including my library as an interesting library. It seems that we share quite a few books and two favorite authors. I have a relatively small collection when compared to that of the other LT members. I will be glad to know what you found interesting about my library. Once again thank you!

Hello Marie,

Thank you for adding me to your interesting libraries.

It is one of the books I plan to read oveer the next couple of months.

Earth our mother, breathe forth life
All night sleeping
Now awaking
In the east
Now see the dawn

Earth our mother, breathe and waken
Leaves are stirring
All things moving
New day coming
Life renewing

Eagle soaring, see the morning
See the new mysterious morning
Something marvelous and sacred
Though it happens every day
Dawn the child of God and Darkness

Noticed you liked The Virgin Suicides, and I was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a dysfunctional family and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:
