I have decided to read more. I get most of my reading done whilst traveling, so bookcrossing is ideal for me! :)

I also have decided that I will buy books second-hand as much as possible - from charity shops, or off Amazon - and to release them after reading them. It's cheaper, and much more fun!

I don't need books to gather dust on my shelves. It's unlikely I will read them again, and next time I move I'll have to haul boxes of them around!
Some of my releases have been caught, which I find terribly exciting!! :)
Thanks, book catchers!! :))
