It's a new month... time for some new bug fixes!
While Matt is still working on harnessing the book data that we all have contributed to, and making it available for searches, he's also been rather busy fixing other things, and even adding some nifty little features. Read all about it in this Announcements forum post.Recent Book Activity

Extended Profile
Hi,
I live in Herne Bay, Kent and am married with 3 children. Although I registered with BookCrossing late last year, I haven't really done much finding and releasing, but I hope that will change now!
I don't get a lot of time to read as much as I would like to because I'm so busy reading the review sections of newspapers for books that might interest me, that I don't get the time to read these books once I've bought them! Does anyone else have that problem? But when I do I read most genres of books, preferring contemporary fiction, biographies and travel writing. I don't read a lot of sci-fi (well none at all actually). Maybe BookCrossing will change that!
A few books I've had the time to read so far this year are:
Mr S: The Last Word On Frank Sinatra by George Jacobs
The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown
Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers by Mary Roach
Trawler by Redmond O'Hanlon
Our Hidden Lives by Simon Garfield
Misadventures by Sylvia Smith
84 Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff
I am currently reading The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, which I am really enjoying.
My TBR pile is vast, but the ones by my bed are 26a by Diana Evans, Beyond Black by Hilary Mantel, Mao by Jung Chang, A Long Way Down by Nick Hornby, The Rules of Perspective by Adam Thorpe and Saturday by Ian McEwan. They should keep me busy for a while :)
If you see anything you fancy on my bookshelf that's available let me know, and I can arrange to send it to you.
