I'm Julie and I live in Washington State. I'm a mom of four and am currently home-schooling three of my kids. I recently stopped working, and I'm at home full-time now so I have plenty of time to read again. Okay, not plenty of time, but more time.
Growing up, our town had an old Carnegie library that still, 20 years later, holds a special place in my heart. Perhaps because I cultivated a love to read there or because it sheltered me when I needed to be renewed. It was my church. I spent numerous hours down in that cramped basement immersing myself in other people's lives, dreams, and ideas. The library isn't there anymore, but my love of reading remains. I read fiction and non-fiction, anything that catches my attention.
This looks like a wonderful site, and I'm looking forward to interesting conversations, new insight into old favorites, and a few leads to new books to fall in love with.
