The man who doesn’t read good books has no advantage over the man who can’t read them.

– Mark Twain


Books

Ah, books — the many and varied loves of my life. The first word I ever said was “book”; I taught myself to read when I was three, and I’m well on my way to amassing a personal library that threatens to dwarf the public library down the road. I read constantly — in the bathtub, while I’m eating (the only lapse in manners I was allowed while growing up), in bed, in the car... I’ve even been known to try and read in darkened theaters during boring movies. I have at least one book with me at all times, and I get antsy if I have to sit still for more than five minutes without reading something.

Good & Bad

I have all-time favorites, guilty pleasures, and just a few most hated books.

Favorite Things

Have you met my favorite characters? Or maybe you'd like to read some of my favorite quotes.

List ’Em!

My reading list will tell you what I'm reading right now; my total read list will tell you what I've already finished.

Elsewhere

Goodreads helps me keep track of what I’m reading. If you’re also a member, feel free to add me as a friend (my username is “Romy”).




A snapshot of me (Romy)

Hi. I’m Romy. without-feathers.com is my personal site, where I blog and review things and make lists and write bad poetry and do whatever other silly things come to mind. If this sounds like fun to you, it’s probably time to take your meds. But first, stick around and surf my site a little.

I hope you have as much fun exploring this site as I have making it. :)
