Welcome to Waderwoman's Shelf!



I am a Mum of 2- 1 of each, and I absolutely love bookcrossing!


What did I do with all my spare time before I discovered it??


Sorry no piccie- all the cameras hereabouts have been cracked!!


RABCK's and Trades


If anyone out there fancies anything from my availables, PM me + Id be happy to trade!



I would just like to say that my AVL shelf does not in any way reflect my bookreading taste, I have recently obtained loads of books from our local library sale so have registered them all ready to release. It's my TBR pile thats more me!


My Christmas In July Wishlist

I love pebbles and sea glass so maybe a little something from your area would be nice.
Earrings necklaces or bracelets/bangles-I love all kinds especially lovingly made ones.
Im a chocoholic so that goes without saying Id love any kind, my daughter is especially partial to Hershey kisses.
Crystals- I just love them
Silly cosy socks as I get very cold tootsies
I love the artist Gustav Klimt so anything related to him.( I really really wish to visit his exhibition in Vienna someday!)
Buttons I love them and am trying to get a choc full button tin like my Grandma had!
Anything Moomin related-I love them!
Any lucky charm- I love to carry a whole host of them around with me but please No Rabbits Foot!!!!
Any Bookcrossing supplies would be great
Postcards of where you live
Audio books on cassette tape- I have an ancient player in my tootly car + love listening when I scoot along.
I simply love love love getting stuff through the post so any surprises would be most welcome the more surprising the better!!
PS Ive also just embarked on learning to crochet so any tips hints or supplies would be welcome too! xxx

My birthday buddy is LindyLouMac - May 2nd

I share my birthday (April 13th) with Christmasspirit and Saphyre.

BOOKRINGS IVE HOSTED
Basic rules
• make a journal entry when you receive the book so everyone knows it has safely arrived
• ask the next on the list for his/her address ( This saves a bit of time and stops the book getting "stuck"

• try to read it within a month (if you feel you need more than a month please let me know).

• make a journal entry when finished, telling us what you thought- did you like it? Did you think it was well-written?

• wrap it up well and send it to the next person
but best of all ENJOY!! ( hopefully)
