BookCrossing member fanclub a Lovemark commenter winner
For Alice Alcorn (screenname
fanclub), a student in Honolulu, Hawaii, the random acts of kindness promoted by BookCrossing have created a special emotional connection:
"BookCrossing builds 'ohana.' Ohana is the Hawaiian concept of family, and it stretches far beyond the standard idea of a biological one. Ohana embraces the people who are special to you, who become an integral part of your life. BookCrossing fosters a sense of community that is welcome in today's busy world. Many of us have found friends and built a new ohana out of our appreciation and love of literature and discourse."
As one of three runners-up in Lovemarks.com'
KitchenAid prize round, Alice received an autographed copy of Lovemarks, the Future Beyond Brands.
