In February 2008 I read an article about Bookcrossing in the Telegraph, or the Guardian newspaper. I told my cousin about it and we both joined. A few months later I decided to delete my details as I hadn't used the site at all. During the summer, while travelling on a round the world ticket trip, I was leaving books in hostels and in book exchanges as usual and realised I could be using bookcrossing to see where they might end up. I joined again in August and the first book I left, in a book exchange in Queenstown, NZ, was journalled.

My bookshelf doesn't completely reflect my reading tastes; it's also a hotch potch of books I've been given to pass on and others I've picked up to fufil wishes.
