Kathy climbs Mount Tsundoku in 2025

My name is Kathy! I am 38 years old and live in Austria.

Until 2024 I have been working as a bookseller but after 13 years I needed a change of air. In January 2025, I will start a more structured work which will hopefully leave me more time and energy to read books I want to read. Of course, there is a little bit of sadness about leaving bookselling. But when I have got a certain kind of routine in my new job, I am thinking about volunteering for a library.

I like all different kind of genres but my goal for 2025 is to finally read more female writers.

My favourite reads of 2024 are:
* Michael McDowell: Blackwater
* Paul Takashi Nagai: Die Glocken von Nagasaki
* Hayo Miyazaki: Shunas Reise
* Sei Shonagon: Das Kopfkissenbuch der Dame Sei Shonagon
* Sempé / Patrick Modiano: Catherine Certitude
* Kerry Greenwood: Miss Phryne Fisher Investigates

Welcome back, Kathy! Unfortunately, LT’s wiki system is down, but I’ve got you on my list to add to the Threadbook once it’s back up.
