Hi Everyone,
I am Daisy and I live in a rural northern suburb of Dallas, TX. I am a working mother of DS (7) and DD (4).
I am a web based training designer for a large mortgage banking company.
My DH is a full time stay at home dad, and retired from the US Air Force.
We met and married when we were both stationed in San Antonio, TX - both in the Air Force.
I have always loved to read. As a child I had few friends, and reading was something I could escape in.
My husband isn't much of a reader, but we are teaching our children to be.
I don't want yet another item to add to my calendar, so I thought an online group of reading enthusiasts would be good.
I like a wide variety of books, and I had no interest in celebrity book clubs.
Thanks for allowing me to be a part of your group. I hope to be a good contributor.
~Daisy  |

Bon Jour, Ophelia.
I know just enough French to be dangerous. LOL
Just wanted to pop back and say that the 10 post rule isn't a bad one. I would've reached it earlier had it not been for a family emergency.
So, now I'm back and raring to go on at least Walden. I'll have to see with the fiction, but it sounds interesting.
Hopefully I will have 25 posts soon so I may win a book, but work just gave me another 200 gift certificate to BarnesandNoble, so that will be fun too.
Nice to get to know folks.
Best,
Daisy |

I'm just finding my way around here myself!
It's a busy group here. Shouldn't be too hard to work our way up to 25 posts, I think.
Have Fun!

Nice to meet you, Daisy.
Welcome to BookTalk. I'm glad you don't find the 25+ post requirement too challenging. It isn't meant as a challenge, but as a means to keep the book polls honest. |
