I recently ordered a slough of travel-related books from Better World Books. Mt. TBR is quite tall, but this goes on the top of the heap to be enjoyed later.

I started reading this a while ago, but it was not what I was thinking it would be. The second half of the book was more like what I expected, with ideas and suggestions for coping with traveling alone not just a lust of places to go. But in the end, I didn't feel like I learned a lot about traveling alone.

This book is one of many being passed along to potential readers at the Kensington Book Festival by members of BookCrossing in Washington DC (BCinDC).

We are excited to be able to share this book with you and hope that you are equally excited by receiving a free book. The book is given freely to you to enjoy as you see fit, although if you choose to someday share it with someone else we encourage you to do so.

Any future reader or recipient of this book is encouraged to leave a journal entry here on the BookCrossing site to let prior readers know the fate of the book. You can make an anonymous entry without joining the BookCrossing movement, but if you are interested in joining, it is a free and spam-free community where your contact information is not shared with others. Best of all, members receive private messages via e-mail from books like this one when those books are journaled, allowing for long-term relationships between books and readers.
