Susan- I am reading a double book of Nora Roberts (while in the OBX last week read both of the books I'd taken with me & had to have a book so went & bought one. There was a Nora Roberts book at the rental house but I didn't care for the type. Blackberry addict, huh? Are you talking the kind you eat or the device? Kathy88 West Virginia P. S.

Kathy88 - Welcome to BX and the group! I think that Bookcrossing is one of the most diversified 'clubs' I have ever been involved with. Not just because of our membership - it is also because of the different things you can do with it! A lot of people enjoy the forums - I don't really have that kind of time. I do enjoy the Relay site (www.bookrelay.com) as well as giving RABCK and attending local meetings. I'm sorry to say I don't wild release more - I never seem to take the time for it. Whatever you choose in Bookcrossing, enjoy yourself!!!

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 l! eave 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!).
