Another lovely gift from the boys for Christmas 2007! I requested this one as it has a huge following on BookCrossing. I can't wait to get to it.

This one has a huge following among the BookCrossing community and was at the top of my 'To Be Read' pile when my bookclub happened to pick it. So imagine my surprise when I didn't love it... infact, I just kind of liked it. I'm glad I read it - if it wasn't picked by my bookclub, I KNOW I would NOT have finished it. I forced myself through it. It was just too mish-mashed! Comings and goings, drizzling rain, wretched old crows holed up in dank mansion telling story in retrospect. Cats, topiary, one crazy person after another dying, dying, dying. Get on with it already! It was a mess. So as you can see...I didn't really care for it but that is what is so great about literature. Different strokes for different folks. At book club I'll be honest...just not this honest. I happen to know,the person that picked it love-love-loved this book. And that's OK.

I'll be setting this one free soon and I'm sure it'll be picked up immediately...and hopefully journaled by someone who can also enjoy it asmany other have....just not me. Best wishes book!

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

RELEASE NOTES:

Left on towel shelf above sinks in women's rest room.

Hi and Thanks for picking up my book. You’ve stumbled upon a BookCrossing book. It’s a cool website for the catching and releasing of books. I’ve stealthily stashed this book and you’ve come upon it. I may or may not have read this book (you can tell by the journal note above this one) but it’s yours now. Sometimes I just acquire books, don’t have a chance to read them and I set them free for others to share. Making the world a library! Scoot around on the site-it’s easy, safe and spam free. Please make a journal entry when you FIND the book and again when you re-release it. It’s a blast to watch them travel and to hear from them once in a while. It’s sort of like a message in a bottle and it passes on the good karma of reading! Have a great time with this book and I hope you like BookCrossing!

Books…Love ‘em and Leave ‘em.
