Katie and I were in Augusta ( Evans, Ga. technically ) yesterday and saw a “Wild Book ” bumper sticker on a car. I know you’re thinking soooo?!?!. It reminded me that I have forgotten to share this website with the rest of the world.
Here is their description of how it works ….
Grab a book, any book.
Register it with www.bookcrossing.com and jot its unique BookCrossing ID (BCID) down in the book, along with the website url Get nifty labels here or here. If it’s already a BookCrossing book, you can skip this step.)
Read your book and then use the BCID to make a journal entry on it. You�ll find a place to do that here on the home page or through the link on the left side bar
Release the book out into the wild and wait for it to write home to you. (You can also give the book to a friend, send it on a book ring etc– just be sure to make a release note on it when you send it off into the world.)
I hope to try this very soon. It sounds like a neat kinda scavenger hunt idea to get new books to read.
