I freed my first book!

Posted on July 4, 2004 | 1 comment

So I released my first Book Crossing book! I let loose Echo Burning (a Jack Reacher Novel) by Lee Child (I actually had a few in my backpack, it seemed the one most likely not to get tossed out). I was at dinner at TGIFriday’s and just left it on one of the unoccupied chairs after I cashed out.

You put a note in the front off the book, tell them the book is on a journey and they should get on-line to register it’s location so that it’s path can be followed! Very cool! I don’t know if I can wait, I’m ready to label some books and let them go tomorrow!


You can actually see things like the 100 most recently released books. Then you can go hunt for them! If you sign up be sure to mention that garylapointe sent you.
