Remember BookCrossing?
I mentioned it yonks and yonks ago and managed to release a grand total of two books through it.
So will I have any better luck with MyBookYourBook? I suspect not, but at least the possibility that I may receive demands from people for the books I offer up might motivate me. Of course, I can't sign up to it until I've visited my bookshelves and selected a starter ten, and given the infrequency of my visits home, that might be a while away. Anyway - I'll try to get round to it.

I released quite a few via BookCrossing. In Redcar. Never to be heard of again. They’ve probably been eaten. Suffice to say, I’ve given up. Seems like quality contemporary fiction is a tad too rich for the locals. Sigh.

If you like swapping/sharing books, there’s another site called ReadItSwapIt you might like to know about.
Unlike MySwapYourSwap it’s completely free.
It’s also a lot less complicated. You can register as many or as few books as you like and you don’t have to wait five weeks for your swap to arrive.

You wrote some time ago about http://www.mybookyourbook.co.uk and I wonder if you ever got round to joining and whether you have found it works for you?
