Hello! Welcome to my bookshelf...
Please note that i have recently moved - i'll be bookcrossing in Jersey now!
I will gladly send or exchange books with others if i have the capacity at the time. If something takes your fancy PM me, even if its not 'available' i'm open to negotiation! (Provided you are a 'proper' bookcrosser...)
I love this, its fantastic, hope you're as happy as me about BCing!
Currently Reading... - Lovely Bones - Read once before, was picked by my bookgroup, so reading it again - had to buy a new copy as i sent the last one travelling!(Updated 25th August 2009)
The Wizzbiz Challenge!
I have currently set myself a challenge to read some 'classic' novels that i have always wanted to read. As always, all help gratefully received, and i am happy to trade/RABCK any kind person who helps me out!! I'm doing very well with this, people have been most generous! Now i just have to decide which to read ....
Some of these books may not be considered 'classics' by everyone. There is contemporary mixed with traditional fiction. Obviously, all suggestions as to what to try will be appreciated
