Bookcrossing

by Julia on 18 September, 2007

I found a bookcrossing book in town today. It’s only my third find – I actually squealed with delight when I saw it.

For those not in the know, Book Crossing is where you “release books into the wild” by leaving them in findable places (this one was on the wall of a church in town). Inside the book, a [BCID] code is written which when entered into the book crossing website tells you the travelling history of the book. After you’ve read the  book, you ‘release’ it and watch it’s progression.

For book lovers, it’s great fun and gives you the oppurtunity to try out lots of different genre’s of books and different authors that perhaps you wouldn’t normally try.

 Time to go – I have a book to read!
