I have been bookcrossing for a few years now, and have found it to be a wonderful way to exchange books, meet fabulous people, and come into contact with new and interesting (challenging?) ideas.

I've also discovered that a certain degree of organisation is called for. In the past I have joined up to bookrings as they took my fancy, and then would discover that many bookrings would all arrive at once (and generally in a busy work period for me too). So, one of my 2009 resolutions is to list these things for myself, so there shouldn't be too many surprises in the next few months...

Bookrings I've joined

  • The bell jar by Sylvia Plath
  • Dead air by Iain Banks


    Bookrings I have organised
  • A fraction of the whole by Steve Toltz
  • Breath by Tim Winton
  • Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel
  • Finkler question by Howard Jacobson
  • Jamrach's menagerie by Carol Birch

    Books read in 2012
  • Buried treasure by Victoria Finlay
  • A visit from the goon squad by Jennifer Egan
  • The sisters brothers by Patrick deWit
