This book was on my wishlist for a long time when I finally decided to purchase a copy for myself. Then the next day I found a used copy at the thrift store for 10 cents!

What’s a bookray and how does it work?

A bookray is when a book passes from person to person based on the list of members involved. Preferably a bookray book is never released into the wild.

To join this bookray (or any other bookray of mine) please private message me. I will be glad to add you to the list. New members are added all of the time so be sure to check the list of participants before you mail the book to the next in line just in case!

Once you are a bookray member you will receive the book from the person listed before you. When you receive the book please make a journal entry stating that you’ve received it. Then read it as soon as you can (no absolute hurry, just be reasonable please :o), and journal again with your thoughts. You’ll then need to private message the person on the list after you for their address. Mail the book by media mail (it’s cheaper!), and make release notes on the book only if you’d like to. Then sit back and watch the continuing journey!

The members are as follows:

sejent (journaled)
Seferim (journaled)
AndysAngel
phillycarol (mailed out)
txcajun
AmberLee17
oceanss (Iran)

Released on Saturday, April 26, 2003 at Bookcrosser's home in postal release, postal release USA.

Let the bookray begin! I hope everyone enjoys the book!

Received in today's mail. I will start reading tonight and journal again when I have finished.

A wonderful book with a lovely main character on the path to self-discovery. This is the type of book that I will buy for my nieces when they get older.

Sending to Seferim in Columbia, MD.

Received today from sejent, I will start it this afternoon and pass it on!




JUNE 14th UPDATE:

This book was a pleasure to read--short and sweet! I thought that Alyce (Beetle... Brat... all her nicknames) was a great character, and I thoroughly enjoyed her growth throughout the book. Like sejent said in her review, I will keep this one in mind to buy my nieces when they get older. Thank you pgsahm for starting this ray~I never would have found this book otherwise!

Sending to AndysAngel (shellyann) in CA on Monday or Tuesday.

Just received this yesterday.

interesting story-a little slow

Just got word that Amberlee17 would like to be last. I will be PM next in line.

Received and read over the weekend. This was a cute story and I too enjoyed the main character, Alyce. I might have to give this book to one of my nieces as part of a birthday gift or something.

I'll PM txcajun and pass the book on as soon as I get a mailing address. :)

7/25/03: I'm mailing it today to txcajun!
