Hi I am new here. And I came across this while searching in the social section. 

Well I am into books. I like fiction and non fiction. 

A have a collection of Little House on the Prairie books. I love just looking at them all neat like on the bookshelf. I also like books with beautiful hardback covers. They stitch the pages. Ah I like " Hairy Mcclary" books. They are children's books. But they make me smile and they are written like a poem. There are just fun to read. A have a collection of those too.

I like to cook, so I have a huge amount of cookbooks, mostly plant based whole food ones. I also have lots of these on my kindle and phone. 

Health books, oh yes lots of these. As well as some gardening, sewing, fitness and a few bibles.

I had to donate a lot of my books a couple of times because there was not the space fir them at my place.

What a cool tread to have started! I love non-fiction too. As I am studying to become a medical lab scientist, I love reading books about that topic! Some of my favourites include:
- The man who mistook his wife for a hat
- The woman with a worm in her head and other stories of infectious diseases
- When breath becomes air
All above are super interesting, heart felt stories from real life 🙂
Otherwise, I like reading people's stories with mental health. 🙂

Love reading books!

With stage 4 restrictions happening in Melbourne, I've taken up more reading at night. 
I'm into fiction and non fiction. Love it when I find a really good biography and also enjoy Mystery. 
My latest read is Nine perfect strangers.

I love reading. I particularly enjoy psychological thrillers. 

I also love reading what kids around me are reading so that we can 'book talk'. I love book talking with kids.
