The Shipping News
5 journalers for this copy...
I really enjoyed this book when I read it 8 or so years ago, and I wanted to send it to Lisagt in Australia as a birthday RABCK. I hope she hasn't read it, but if she has I'm sure she can trade it for something she'd like. The book is better than the movie. I remember loving the atmosphere and mood created in the book. Just like being in a patch of fog... like the sound is dampened somehow, and everything is gray and kind of solemn.
This was in the mail when I arrived home from holidays today so that was great! Yes! I have read it so will make it available for trade. Thank you house-elf!

Since our BookCrossing zone is not getting a lot of attention, I took this book along on a meet-up in Hong Kong, not far from our ship.

Pick up at the fun meet-up in Hong Kong this Sunday. Thanks for sharing!
Just an update on this one - I did not take it along with me on holiday for fear of losing it and have not yet read it. I'll get to it as soon as I plow through all the books which arrived in my absence and need to be moved along quicker. Thanks for understanding.
Enjoyed this one - interesting characters, a little depressing, but uplifting at the end. Posting on to another Bookcrosser - enjoy!

Very excited! my first bookcrossing book from overseas has arrived! Thank you Wandering-B I look forward to reading it and hopefully sending you something in return.
Finally finished reading this book.I have been reading it since I received it off and on. At hairdressers, at bus stops and in various places I have lived. Wow about 5 years.I didnt really enjoy it, but persisted and found it better near the end.
Time to let someone else have a go :-)
