Hello fellow readers! I just joined this group (although I am a member, moderator & owner of several others) because I released my first 5 books into the wild yesterday. Well, they weren't my first 5 books....heaven knows I've read/owned a gazillion through my 53 years, but what I meant was I released BX books for my first time yesterday.
I learned about BX through my habit of entering my paper currency at www.wheresgeorge.com. Someone in a forum mentioned BX & I thought it sounded interesting & I signed up right then but didn't register any books till a couple weeks ago when preparing to go on vacation where we'd be renting a house in Avon, NC (Outer Banks) for a week. I'd noticed in other rentals we'd stayed in that there were always some novels there for renters to read.....don't know if the home owners place them there or other renters but I thought I'd take some of my many & leave them (OMG! I forgot to look in the ones that were there to see if any were marked as being registered @ BX.....you can tell I'm a newbie at this, can't you?) for others to enjoy. I've now edited the entries on them to show where they are. (I was a little conflugarated at first because it seems to me that if you leave a book somewhere it's available but I think I am right that once you leave it it becomes "traveling"....I hope so anyway...and I hope mine travel to people who will enter them back into BX!) Romance novels are what I read most often. I prefer them set in modern times & subscribe to a couple of sets that I get monthly from Harlequin Reader Service. Since my mother passed away & a couple of ladies at work retired & I used to share my books with them I am really getting a backlog so I thought registering some of them & releasing them for the pleasure of others would be a good thing. Anyway, just wanted to make my first post & say hello. Now I'll read some of your posts & see what is discussed here (already see you have "gatherings" just like we "georgers" do!).
