Gaelyne's Reading Corner
Created 15 June 2006
This page is dedicated to my fellow Breast Stroke member, Lynn Vinall, who passed away on 14 June, 2006 leaving behind her husband and two young daughters. As I was starting to create this page, I received news of Lynn's death, and it seems only fitting to dedicate this page to her.
I've been a member of Bookcrossing.com since May 17, 2004. Unfortunately I deleted the list of books I'd read in 2004, but have decided to place the books that I've read on my own website just for completeness and so that my profile on Bookcrossing isn't filled with books I've read more than a year ago. On the lists below, you can click on the book title to read the journal entries these books have had, which include my comments as well. My Bookcrossing ID is Flitterby .
Note - books that have a (L) notation were library books so they aren't clickable.
