Hi
I love reading (of course) - I also like picking a book at random, whatever the type, and trying it...which makes BCing ideal. Try this: Go to the library and mentally divide it in two. Toss a coin and go to whichever half wins. Divide it in two again and toss the coin. Repeat until you home in on a single book. Take that book out and try it, however unpromising - you might discover a great new area of book reading!
The fun of it is that you have no idea when you start what you might get. It might even be a CD or a dictionary. Of course if you prefer you can limit yourself to certain sections, fiction only perhaps, or biographies.
