I read a post on the Everyday Giving regarding bookcrossing. I had never heard of this before. I immediately checked it out and knew I was gonna have to do it. This is just the thing for people like me who don't often buy books because it seems like such a waste that I will be the only one reading it. What a fun way to share! On the way home from work today, I released a book at the Super Target in McKinney, TX. Since it is a women's book, I put it in the shoe department. I hope it finds a good home!

Could you link the article? I would like to know what releasing a book entails. Won't target think they are shoplifting?
That's kind of what I was thinking (re: Target). I thought of doing this (book releasing, leaving it on a park bench, etc.). I'm torn now though, after donating a bunch of books to the library. I'd be afraid that my "released" book would get lost, damaged or thrown away if I left it at some random place.
I guess I have taken a book that I was reading into a store so often without an issue that it didn't occur to me that it would be one. Guess that is part of living in a small town...
