The quality of Releasing is not strange;
It satisfies the urge to please and spreads the love of Books
Upon the one Bequeathed. It is twice blest:
It blesseth those that Release and those that Catch.
'Tis tidiest of the tidiest; it becomes
The cluttered housewife better than her mess;
Her giving shows the force of domestic power,
The attribute of soothing neatness,
Wherein she gets admiring looks from slobs;
But releasing is beyond domestic life,
It is encouraged in Challenges and Rings,
It is an attribute of all who Play;
And BookCrossing becomes a noble thing
When Challenges season Releasing. Therefore, All,
Though Releasing be our object, consider this,
That in the course of letting go none of us
Should see bare shelves; we do speed to booksales,
And those same bookshelves shall be restocked for next month
And future Challenges. I have spoke thus much
To justify my weekly trips to shops,
Bazaars and booksales, this search for endless Titles
Must find compensation by Releasing even more.
(with apologies to Wm Shakespeare)

You are a Sphinx! You are mocked for your unusual
appearance, but you are very loving and
devoted. People just need to give you a
chance!

You Are a Visionary Soul |
You are a curious person, always in a state of awareness. Connected to all things spiritual, you are very connect to your soul. You are wise and bright: able to reason and be reasonable. Occasionally, you get quite depressed and have dark feelings. You have great vision and can be very insightful. In fact, you are often profound in a way that surprises yourself. Visionary souls like you can be the best type of friend. You are intuitive, understanding, sympathetic, and a good healer. Souls you are most compatible with: Old Soul and Peacemaker Soul |
