Journal Entry 1 by glory-to-glory from Crystal Springs, Mississippi USA on Saturday, December 10, 2005

This is an online "journal" for my 2006 Anything Goes - Really! Bookbox. The box will include a journal with this BCID for us to include instructions, notes, share about yourself, etc. These things will be in book form so the postal service can't accuse us of including personal letters.

I will start the box with 25 books plus the journal making 26. Take as many as you like, but add enough so that the box always has at least 25 books plus the journal. I thought the number 26 would tie into the box name - 2006 Anything Goes - Really!

Anything goes - religion, childrens, romance, etc., that are sometimes banned from other bookboxes. Just be considerate and don't put too many of these genre books in a box. Five might be a good limit.

Please journal the books you keep and release the books you add. Try not to keep the box longer than three weeks and pm the next person when you mail it.

The box is starting with

P is for Peril by Sue Grafton
Anne Tyler: Three Complete Novels - A Patchwork Planet, Ladder of Years and Saint Maybe
Where the Ferry Crosses by B. J. Woods
Sanctuary by Faye Kellerman
Invasion by Robin Cook
Remember Me by Mary Higgins Clark
Love Me Forever by Johanna Lindsey
Rosehaven by Catherine Coulter
Lord Harry by Catherine Coulter
The Big Drive by Wade Everett
Writers of the Future, Vol XV (Si Fi)
Writers of the Future, Vol IX
Women in Love by D. H. Lawrence
Herman Melville: A Collection of Critical Essays edited by Myra Jehlen
Palgrave's Golden Treasury of Love Poems
King Lear by Shakespeare, Dover Thrift Edition
Teach Your Child Decision Making by John. F. Clarby and Maurice J. Elias
The Healing Energies of Music by Hal Lingerman
Speaking of Women's Health: The Book

Box arrived yesterday. I will be deciding what to take out later today. Thanks!

I removed 6 books and replaced them. I also put in an extra 5 or 6 books to fill the box.

Tranq1 has asked to be skipped due to the fact that she is getting overwhelmed with bookboxes right now. The last person may want to contact her and see if she is interested later on.

I am now going to contact lyssrose for her mailing info to mail the box on.
