About Aluminé

I have been an avid reader since I was about 8 or thereabouts. I remember my dad keeping a record of what he read so I thought "I can do that too"...And so I did! Now I'm a bit older than 8 and have thoroughly enjoyed reading regardless of whatever else I've doing, studying or working on.
I've managed to enthuse a few friends to spend more time reading and as always have been asked..."but what should I read?". To this end I've made up lists and reviews of books so I could get them hooked on some amazing books that are out there.
I'm also a photographer, which has provided some amazing opportunities and through which I've met amazing people. I love the creative side of it and keeping up with the thechnological changes that have happened since I first picked up a camera (A 110 film camera we found on the side of a dirt road in Patagonia!)
I am part of a Fabric Artist's group, as I love dabbling in mixed media and have been experimenting with making books out of...many things!
 Books are a passion and no matter how much e-readers develop, there's nothing quite like holding a book in your hands and seeing an author's creativity spill from page to page, carrying you from here and now to the realm of possibility.
Enjoy!
