This... is... Jeopardy!

*theme song plays as camera zooms in on...*

A children's librarian from Oakland, California...


Remy Timbrook.

That is me next to Alex Trebek, who is the voice of my childhood.

That is to say: I am going to be on Jeopardy! next week. I taped my episode(s) (no spoilers!) in September, and I will make my (first? only? gotta watch!) appearance on Wednesday, December 20th. It was an intense experience, and I am so pleased to have achieved a lifelong goal and item on my 101 in 1001 to-do list. Tune in Wednesday to see how I do!

If you won a game show, what would you do with your winnings?

Reading List 2016

Here's an archived copy of my reading list for this year. I'll be keeping up the new list here: http://mlisunderstanding.blogspot.com/p/reading-list.html

I would recommend the bolded titles with enthusiasm, and I enjoyed the italicized titles but probably wouldn't read them again.
