Hello!

Welcome to my bookshelf. This is a work in progress.

If I appear to be an inactive member its because I run the OBCZ in cheltenham (starbuckschelt) and am doing bookcrossing there!

I do send some of my available books travelling from time to time and have regular zones I use.

If you are curious to know what I like to read then take a look at my Permanent Collection. I was given a lot of books for bookcrossing purposes so not all I've registered is a true representation of what I like to read...!

I do keep some back in case someone wants one directly sent, rather than chasing round the world to get it!! In any case some are my favourite books which I am less willing to never see ever ever again...Unless it ends up near me of course, the world is smaller than we think!

Please see my wishlist to see if there's anything on there that you could lend! Perhaps we can do a swap?

Please leave comments, I like to see what people think of what they read!
