MidSouth BookCrossers You can check out more photos of our fun little group here.... MississippiMom's Flickr Photos My sister-in-law moved into a new home and gave me several hundred paperback books she no longer had room for.... my daughter-in-law (Crankydragon) told me of this great website... serendipity! Now as I read these books (mostly historical romance) I can release them in the wild. What a fun idea. Living in Mississippi, I have a soft spot for John Grisham.... I can remember when he had a small law office just around the corner and one of his first book signings was at the local Kroger grocery store. Boy, what a long way he has come! I enjoy reading almost anything.... sci-fi, mystery, historical romance, paranomal, but looks like I'll be reading the classic romance novels for a while... or maybe just setting them free (or that just have Elvis in the title) that I can release in the area around Graceland.... My first wild catch was a book I left at 'Heartbreak Hotel' !!! www.flickr.com/---/" title="Photo Sharing">images.weserv.nl/?... width="410" height="500" alt="heartbreak-hotel" /> It ended up in Holland ... The second is currently in Australia ... Catch #3 is in Canada! Elvis is truely GLOBAL! My first Graceland catch! Graceland catch number two! www.flickr.com/---/" title="Mass Release at Graceland by the MidSouth BookCrossers. by MississippiMom, on Flickr">images.weserv.nl/?... width="600" height="405" alt="Mass Release at Graceland by the MidSouth BookCrossers." /> MidSouth BookCrossers Mass Release at Graceland 2008.

I'll be happy to trade... "Thank you.... Thank you very much" www.mycoolsigns.net/flickr" >images.weserv.nl/?... alt="mississippimom"/> Made with My Cool Signs.Net Note.... Books marked personal collection were either gifts from loved ones, limited editions, or signed copies and will not be released in the wild in my lifetime.... Lord knows what the boys will do with them after I'm gone. Crankydragon is my daughter-in-law and she's the one that turned me on to BookCrossing, so she will know exactly what to do with all my books! |
