HELLO!

I discovered bookcrossing (as did so many other new members from Greece) from the article published in the Greek magazine "Epsilon". As soon as I read it, I became a member. Big thanks to nevermindthegap for writing it. Thanks to him I joined this wonderful community!

I read pretty much everything and I've broadened my horizons sharing opinions on books and authors on BC.
Some of my favorite authors:
Neil Gaiman, Ian McEwan, Paul Auster, Margaret Atwood, Salman Rushdie, Terry Pratchett and others...

Authors discovered through bookcrossing:
Siri Hustvedt, William Gibson, Akira Yoshimura, Jonathan Safran Foer, Raj Kamal Jha, Λένος Χρηστίδης, Μίχαελ Έντε
more to follow...



Bookcrossing
Not all the books on my bookshelf reflect my reading taste, because I often register books that are given to me (by my family for example) just to release them.

-Permanent Collection: My Permanent Collection consists of books that I love and don't want to part with. Namely, books I bought, books that are parts of collections I'm trying to complete, books given to me as gifts by my loved ones, and some of my favorite books, registered here only to let you know how much I like them. These books I can lend to those interested, if I feel that they are trustworthy. I want to be sure that I'll get them back.
-Trades and RABCKs: I'm always willing to do a trade or (maybe) a RABCK, so if you are interested in a book from my bookshelf (status TBR or AVL please), feel free to PM me. I shall be happy to help.

Check out the The Birthday RABCK Experiment! *Thanks chich!*
Have a look at Bookcrossing Cats! *Thanks miau!*

The story behind my screen name




Madrugada


A Deadend mind

Hard to bring out some things with a dead end mind
What you know is no credential
Oh, not at all essential
Hard to bring out small things with a dead end mind
I didn't fill the sea or invent the moon
How did it all occur so soon?

So I finally fall behind
With a dead end mind

I wasted all this time
With a dead end mind
Oh, dead end mind

Oh, dead end mind

Hard to come up with some things with a dead end mind
What you know is no credential
Oh, not at all essential
Small things like your sealed body and your sealed face
Oh, not at all essential
Oh, not at all essential, so

So I finally fall behind
With a dead end mind
I wasted all this time
With a dead end mind
Oh, dead end mind
Oh, dead end mind

Dead end mind

"Things need not have happened to be true.
Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths
that will endure when mere facts
are dust and ashes,
and forgot."
-Dream of the Endless


American Gods
You are American Gods! You are mysterious,
intelligent, and creative. To the rest of the
world you may seem a little standoffish, but
really you're just a quiet person. You're sort of
bookish and are intrigued by mythology and
fairy tales. You might be Wiccan or Pagan,
either that or you're unreligious. You have a
sarcastic sense of humor and are the kind of
person people like to talk to because you're
such a good listener.
