Dear Reader

Welcome to BookCrossing and thanks for being a part of World Book Night 2011, the largest book giveaway in history. 1,000,000 specially printed copies of 25 different books changed hands on March 5th 2011 and began their journey from reader to reader. This book is one of them. World Book Night has joined with BookCrossing to help track these books as they travel. You can be a part of that journey by making a comment in the book's journal here on BookCrossing. Your journal entry can say how you got the book, what you thought of it, your plans for it or whatever else you might like to add.

On BookCrossing you may choose to remain anonymous or join (it's free). If you join, you’ll be alerted by e-mail each time someone makes another journal entry for this specific copy of this book (other copies of the book are travelling with their own ID number. Every copy of every book has a unique ID). It’s all confidential (you’re known only by your screen name and no one is ever given your e-mail address) and spam-free.

Thanks in advance for being part of World Book Night and BookCrossing. And happy reading and sharing.

Picked these up today, looking forward to releasing them and letting more people discover Atwood.

Released as part of a St. George's Day release, in part to celebrate the day but also to bring books to new homes celebrating bookcrossing.
I hope that whoever finds this will enjoy reading it and then pass it on to someone else, leave it out for someone new to discover it or even keep it much loved on their bookshelves.

Just picked this up on my wander round Chelmsford. I didn't realise it was part of a special release, no wonder the book is in such great condition!

I have read this book a few years ago, but then gave my copy away. I'm looking forward to enjoying the book once more.

Oh no, I seem to be collecting WBN books and that's not the point of them! I've also got at least half a dozen Atwood books in my TBR pile! Oh well...

UPDATE/ QUERY: have I got Bethbo's copy now?... I picked it up from KatrinaT at the Riverside Inn meet. Or is this another copy with the wrong BCID in?

Journal Entry 7 by bethbo at Chelmsford, Essex United Kingdom on Thursday, May 12, 2011
It must be a duplicate BCID, because my copy is sitting on my bookshelf still waiting to be read!

Journal Entry 8 by katrinat at Chelmsford, Essex United Kingdom on Thursday, May 12, 2011
Looks like I've duplicated the number! doh!
