Hey all, long time reader recent contributor.

I can't wait to take part in the next book.

My interests are mostly non-fiction but I'll read anything that is good. I take interest in science, and the environment. I listen to all types of music and study hard in school.

I am in school in Canada and may find free time hard to come by but I will do my best to keep up with what is going on in the community.

Check me out @:

Again time is a huge factor with these side interests but I will try to be as creative as I can in the future.

Yes Grim, this address works. I'm also at aNobii, it's like the Librarything, it's a good way of finding out about a person who loves to read, seeing which books they've read and how they have rated them.

Yes, I agree totally. Personally it is great and socially it is even better. Not only does it help me to remember what I have read but I can influence and be influenced by other peoples choices in books. I have discovered many books that I am waiting to read through anobii in particular.
