My best so far is this one https://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/17022041 at Oxford Castle. The …

Thanks Anyrock, I think there's a very good chance that I will be able to visit Utrecht Central station. If I find any book crossing books there I will certainly journal them. We will be visiting in early August. Luggage…

Oehoeberoe, thank you so much for that kind of offer, but I think it won't be possible, as I am the only person in my family who enjoys book crossing! I understand there are lots of minibiebs throughout the city, so I wi…

Look at any book on BCing and you will see, along with the book details, "Buy from one of these Booksellers". Thanks to the way the internet works, almost all the options will be one of Amazon's many branches. But Amazon…

Book Crossing seems to be going through a low activity phase here in the UK. It seems to be increasingly hard to find suitable places to leave books. Even cafes don't seem to make room for them, and the purpose-built Nat…

There are a few of us in Cheltenham but so far not much activity apart from an OBCZ set up a few years ago by someone who has now moved away. Oh, and one at UCAS. Boston Tea Party strikes me as the perfect place to meet …
