Book Cossing - a new release


I mentioned book crossing in my last post, so enjoying the idea I followed up on it. A few articles ago i reviewed Space Captain Smith, and this in mind I set it free http://www.bookcrossing.com/518-7804825 .

As I write this The book as a new owner, I placed it on th shelf an sat with a coffee, a few moments later it was picked up and gone. It has to be said looking at the other books it was not a hard choice. It sat out prodly between P.D.James and Ruth Rendell.

Now the book gets its own story, I'd like to think the person who chose it will do the book crossing thing, but even not it will have a tale to tell.
It as peaked my interest I passed a few words with him as he looked at the book, to me he sounded as though form the southern hemisphere, fearing to insult I will not choose between NZ or OZ for his land of origin. I'd like to think he may be passing through maybe the book will travel, or maybe he is here for a year and the book will travel only as far as the next hostel... Who knows.

I will continue in this way, a book review, a release. the releases will be at the Kitchen Garden Cafe, Birmingham  in the main.
