The bibliophile, revealed.

I am a lover of books.  All kinds of books -- fiction, non-fiction, the kind that fall somewhere in between.  Anyone who has seen the library in the office that I share with my husband knows the extent of my love of books.  (Also, the moving company who recently moved us from Nashville to Memphis knows of our shared love of books, but that is neither here nor there.)

But despite my love of books, I have found myself of late falling away from reading new books.  I mostly read and re-read my old favorites -- my old friends.  But moving to a new city has inspired me to make new friends, and to read new books.  So a new start.  I am dedicating this blogs to the books that I read that I love or don't.  I will review books here -- some of them new, some of them old friends, some new to me.  If you have any recommendations, please, let me know.  I never met a book recommendation that I didn't take seriously.

And so, the adventure begins.  I just need to decide where to start.
