Hi, I`m Fiona -please call me Nona- and I`m new there.
I`m fourteen and I`m from Switzerland.
I know, I`m not sooo old, but please do not estimate me because of my age. I would say I`m not the typical fourteenyeard old.
I`ve a passion for books, when I`m true, than I`ve like 150 books in my room.
I ever try to be funny but I am not. You will see.
So what could I say about me more? I don`t know.
If you have questions so ask. But attention, I bite

Welcome to WrongPlanet!

I hate people judging me by age, as I'm not the typical sixteen year old...
Hope you enjoy your time here

Hi and welcome!
Can I ask you which kind of books you have or prefer?
Because me too I like very much to collect books...and I have a lot of books and I love them very much
and I would like to have thousands of books in my home but I should have an home big like a castle to satisfy such wish...

Welkome to WrongPlanet.

Oh my god you like books, you trully are a freak amongst your age group.

Hey, Im Brianna. I'm not the typical 15-year-old, and I'm not just saying that. I'm new too, but I'm sure you will be welcomed!

Welcome to Wrong Planet!

Hello and welcome to WP.

From Switzerland, eh? I've always fancied going there - the Swiss have a real democracy, unlike our own.

Welcome!

Its good to find another person who enjoys books! I have around 70 books, although most of them are on my laptop.

@sraddha I prefer historic books. Most of them are in german. But some in orginal english one i liked is "The Geisha". I like Meg Cabot too. Then "Harry Potter", and my big favorite is Jay Ashers "13 reasons why". Yeah, a castle would be sometimes very good. Now I know what I want for christmas

@TB Yep, I am some. But i swear, not only because of that. Teenager forgive you books, but a very own humor is something really different...

@Xaisede Hi Brianna, so in wich wy aren`t you different? Just tell me a little bit about that, please!

@Tequila Yes, I `m swiss. Not proud, but swiss. But I was born in Texas. Swiss hasn`t right deomcraty. There just nine persons who make everything. We choose some people and they choose this nine persons. Is a little bit weird. So you`re from UK? People so often tell me, I would look english because of my ginger hair so something UK sounds in a funny way familiar for me.

@ScientistofSound So which are you favourites? Or do you find all equally?

@ All others Thank you for the warm welcoming. I have the inkling, that I will writhe much here...

I like sci fi books and horror books

My top 5 are

1. Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep - Phillip K Dick
2. A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgees
3. Lord Of The Rings
4. War Of The Worlds - H.G Wells
5. Various works by HP Lovecraft

Hello and welcome to WrongPlanet.

I had more than ten thousand books in my personal library until 1995 when I moved a hundred miles away to be with a woman I met on a BBS (kinda like a forum / game site in the earlier days of the internet). In the move I halved my collection, partly for convenience and partly because since I had the internet I didn't need as many).

I moved again a couple times in that town, each time reducing the number of books as more sources became available on the internet. My greatest reduction was in moving from California to Oregon. In the cold winter of 2006-2007 I was living in a big barn on a riverfront property in Oregon while waiting for a place to rent that would accept pets (we wouldn't give up our dog or cats). I actually burned a few hundred of my books to stay warm. Of course I was very selective as to which books went into the stove!

In Oregon I moved a couple more times. The last move (May 2010) I reduced my book collection even more, since nearly all of my reading these days is from sources on the internet. I only have about 1,500 books now.
