Concerning books with To Be Read-status: Books buried at the bottom of Mt. TBR (currently numbering well over 300 -- I simply must stop buying books!) have two possible fates -- they will be released in some fashion, or they will remain part of my permanent collection. I am no longer an active participant in BookCrossing registration or release.

And finally, the bio note: I've been an obsessive reader (and dilettante collector) since about age four, and until BookCrossing, the only reason I ever disposed of any book was some major life change, usually involving relocation. Just about everything has interested me at one time or another, so you'll find all sorts here: history, sociology, romance, political commentary, SF/fantasy, pop psychology, horror....And the spousal unit said go ahead and list his business books as well, just to house our entire library on line.
