Sobre a minha bibliotecaI've got a separate account (Helcura-reading) which I plan to combine with this one, now that Collections have arrived.

I'm a big reader of cartoons, comic strips and speculative fiction. I'm starting to become very fond of manga as well. Then there's my frivolous side, which enjoys neuropsychology, archeology, paleontology, geology, general medicine, biology and classic natural science.

Reviews and Ratings: I've started using a new system for reviews and ratings, but things are pretty mixed up right now as I've not switched everything over, so it's not 100% accurate:

5 stars - Major favorite. Worth owning and reading over and over
4.5 stars - Favorite. Worth owning and re-reading.
4.0 stars - Worth owning.
3.5 stars - Worth reading more than once, but you can let the library store it for you.
3.0 stars - Worth reading once.
2.5 stars - Worth reading if you're particularly interested in the topic.
2.0 stars - Not really worth reading, unless you're stuck in an airport waiting for a late flight.
1.5 stars - Only read if it will be covered on the exam.
1.0 stars - You'll be sorry, and your eyes will burn.
0.5 stars - Abominable. For the goddess' sake don't go in there!

As to reviews, I generally just put opinions in reviews, and leave synopses for the description field.

Tags: Right now, I'm using SF as a generic tag for speculative fiction. I hope to eventually go through the entire library and add more specific tags. Same goes for Comics, which includes cartoons, comic strips, webcomics, etc.

...In the meantime, your method makes good use of the benefits of LT. Putting a code in the title (e.g. "Movie Vampire Vixens" or "DVD Vampire Vixens" might help on the combining end, if more people start adding their movie libraries to LT.

I probably should do that; it wouldn't be that hard, because they are all tagged "movie". Sounds like a project.

I notice on your WikiThing page you're having trouble displaying URIs without getting them truncated. I've finally figured out that you have to embed HTML to stop the format being recognised. There are some hints and tips on my profile page.

Thanks for your thoughts. I think this author may well improve with experience as well. However, I found Jennifer Wingert, Linnea Sinclair and Sandra MacDonald to have stronger first novels in that general category, all of which are pretty lightweight for sf from a woman's point of view. I definitely like seeing more and more of these coming, although wish they could get out of the romance tropes more to find their own strong fusion. Thanks again for commenting.

LOL--you are too kind! Thank you! ::blushing:: If only I could manage to get it done for all of my books. Or even most of them. But alas, time has been spotty, and LT's multifarious (a word that I love in part because of its phonetic next-door-ness to "nefarious") updates have made my home 'puter very froggy and uncooperative when it comes to updating. But I figure if I'm gonna tag, i'm gonna tag! : ) I find it useful when it comes to going back through books I've read in search of something, which I do more often than I should, I expect.

One thing I need to do before things get too much worse is add rudimentary tags to the items in my wishlist account. If only to help myself when it comes to shopping. : )
