When you release books into the wild (that just sounds funny doesn't it) or when you give them to people, do you mention they're free?
I've released a few books and as far as I can remember I've always written on them…

I got it yesterday at a book sale. I think it was waiting for me, even though I haven't had much time to read this month as I am doing NaNo and that eats quite a chunk out of my free time.

I don't really care how many there are, as long as I enjoy them. Plus I try to write reviews for most of them. I imagine it would be quite stressful to challenge myself to read a certain number. And why do that anyway...

I went and looked at the "Go hunting" page you mentioned. I have done this before and couldn't find anything wrong with it. All the cities/provinces under Thailand are from Thailand so there's no mistake - Chiag Rai, Chi…

And I really liked it. I had no idea what it was about or the whole controversy (which I found out about later) about it but the book itself was inspirational. It was one of those books that made me want to be a better p…
