Ice Days


The "Winter Blast of 2007" (thank you WOAI) gave most of us two full days free from the frozen roads, windchill, and the office. With the thermostat straining to keep the temperature indoors at 70 degrees, it would have been a great time to curl up on the couch with a blanket and make some progress on the next book (or any book, for that matter). In true procrastination form, I spent my time surfing the internet and giving the blog a stylish new look, instead of reading to avoid other very important projects.


How did you spend your Ice Days?


During my internet adventures, I did come across an interesting site. Ever wonder what to do with that gem of a book that transformed your life/outlook/etc. and you want everyone to read? Check out Bookcrossing! (It's the ultimate book club.) See the life your old and admired books go on to live without you and the impression they leave on absolute strangers.


Anyone here ever come across a Bookcrossing book?

Ditto!!! Veronica, LOVE the new look of hte wesbite its so BB (bookish brunette =) ha ha

Bijal

This book crossing concept is very interesting, I have never heard of it. I have never come across a book crossing book but if I left one on a park bench it might be "A Fine Balance" by Rohinton Mistry.
