I am currently waiting for the following Bookrings, -rays and -boxes:
Austenland (ring started by ukcanaus)
Jeder stirbt für sich alleine (ring started by moerschen)
Pastworld (ring strated by lunabaerin)
Hüterin des Heiligen Gral (ring started by Märchenbraut)
Garou (ring started by wurm666)

I'm trying to cut down on these so that I will eventually be able to actually reduce my Mt. TBR. Because my motivation to join BC had a lot to do with wanting to REDUCE the amount of books I have ;-))


My own current Bookrings, -rays and -boxes:
Gestatten:Elite BookRing - still open to join


Thanks to ti-ana's bookring about the flight of Tibetan children across the Himalaya to India Flucht über den Himalaya - Tibets Kinder auf dem Weg ins Exil I have been reminded that their struggle is not over, yet. So I am trying to gather books about Tibet (Facts and Fiction) to "spread the word" and get people informed about the situation there in the form of bookrings and -rays and wild releases. Hopefully more people will develop an interest in this topic by reading about it. So if you have books about Tibet (in English or German) and have no special plans for them I'll be glad to take them off your hands ;-)
