Extended Profile
Here I am. Living in South East Wales since 2017. I was a Bookcrosser back in 2004 but lost my way a little. My old name was Sterile and you can still get my page in a search. The cat in my profile picture is Cookin'Fat. Gone but not forgotten.
I'll see how I get on with the format, some of it's the same and some has changed. Hoping to reconnect with old friends and of course make new ones.
I work for the NHS and have done so for over 20 years. I'm slowly getting back into the 'habit' of Bookcrossing after being away for a few years but my reading is still going strong. I like Mysteries and Thrillers and do not really read Chic-lit. I'll read anything if it's short enough but usually the book has to get me interested. There's always something interesting to read and my bookshelves are groaning under the weight of books TBR.
I'm a massive fan of the Library but my local library network here isn't brilliant. I go to the Charity shops in Abergavenny when I need a fix!
August 2023: I found a Little Free Library at Trefil which is a 5 minute drive away. Guess I'll be doing some wild releasing there!
At October 1st 2023 I've read 87 books this year and should achieve 100 books easily.
update on books read. in 2023 my end total was 106 books
I have joined cfrecle's Birthday Group so here's a little more about what I like.
I love chocolate anything,I'm OK with nuts and fruit. No dislikes there.
I drink tea (including fruit infusions) and coffee with no problems
Groovy socks (UK Size 6) I wear scrubs for work so it's fun to show off my socks and get a smile or giggle. There's lots of lovely socks in the Charity shops (The soft top ones are fine).
Book related - I do enjoy a mystery/thriller. I don't really read chic-lit, romance or sci-fi and fantasy. Anything else is fine.i do have a book wishlist www.bookcrossing.com/---/wishlist or surprise me.
I enjoy anything cat related
I like Bookmarks and pens with black ink (for work) Bookcrossing supplies of any kind are always appreciated.
Lots of love and best wishes xx
