**** I am offline for a few weeks whilst in the process of moving house. Please do not post any books to me during this time! **** 
 If you have found one of my books, enjoy! Please be sure to journal it to let me know where it is. If you read it, please also let me know what you thought. After that, the book is yours. You can release it, give it away or keep it till the day you die. It's up to you! The books I release are not an indication of my taste. I release all different types of books, many of which are unread. A better idea of the types of books I like can be gleaned by clicking the links above to see what's on my wishlist or how I’ve rated what I've read. Regarding my wishlist - this is a place to keep track of what I want to read (my memory is like a sieve lol). It is not a list of requests. I am, of course, grateful for any RABCK's that I receive, but I am not greedily asking for hundreds of books! Please be advised that I post once per fortnight. I have a very tight budget, so if I have filled my postage quota, you will have to wait until the following fortnight. Apart from rings and rays I have already signed up for, I only post within Australia. I’m sorry, but postage costs from Australia are astronomical. Finally, I do not engage in trades so please don’t ask. Anyone who needs to contact me can email me at: bookcrossingaddict@gmail.com Have a great day and may you always have a good book to read!

For everything else, my wishlist is located at Wishlistr How Do I Rate My Books? As of 9 March, 2008 the following rating system applies to my books: ~ 1 Star: This book should never have been written ~ 2 Stars: I hated it and would not recommend it to anyone ~ 3 Stars: Better than 2 stars but not quite good enough for 4 stars ~ 4 Stars: Not to my taste - other people might enjoy ~ 5 Stars: Better than 4 stars but not quite good enough for 6 stars ~ 6 Stars: Average - it was OK but I wouldn't read it twice ~ 7 Stars: Better than 6 stars but not quite good enough for 8 stars ~ 8 Stars: Great book - I really enjoyed it ~ 9 Stars: Better than 8 stars but not quite good enough for 10 stars ~ 10 Stars: Brilliant - Highly Recommended! PLEASE CONSIDER DONATING BOOKS TO JJ’S BOOK PROJECT! Book of the Month  8/10 As the title (Letters of an Indian Judge to an English Gentlewoman) implies, this book consists of a series of letters written by an Indian judge to an English lady. We do not see her replies to his letters, but we do see his responses to comments she has made. This gives us the sense of being a voyeur, peeking into the lives of the judge and his family. This book has an old-world charm to it that you rarely, if ever, see in modern novels and, lacking all the swearing, sex and gore so common to todays novels, it makes a nice change for evening reading. |
