The Infinite Curio Turns 5!

Can you believe it?

5 years! That’s an eternity in internet time, and yet, here I stand.

I remember starting the blog (then known as The Infinite Shelf) wondering how long I would last in the blogosphere. I had tried my hand at blogging a few times, without success. I thought I didn’t have enough to say about my passions (books, photography, knitting, etc) to make it interesting. I have rarely been this happy to be wrong.

I am happy, and thankful. I couldn’t do this alone, and you, readers and bloggers, are the ones I am thankful to. For reading, commenting, and stopping by; but also, for inspiring me with your own reviews and reading lists, for encouraging me when things get a bit more difficult, for building a reading community that is so friendly and motivating.

Thank YOU!
