Personal Challenge: To increase the number of countries where my bookcrossing books have traveled. The books must be registered on bookcrossing by me. If you are interested in reading about how my books got there, please look at "Tabby-cat-owner's Around-the-World-personal challenge parts 1-3" on my bookshelf. They are part of my permanent collection.
