Have you heard of bookcrossing? Bookcrossing involves leaving a book that you've finished in a random place for a stranger to find and enjoy. There is an official site you can use to do this if you want to track the book you are giving away. You can put a special code inside the book. The person who finds the book can visit the BookCrossing website and indicate where and when the book was found.Personally, I just leave books around randomly from time to time without an ID number. I once left one in a doctor's office. Another time I left one at a bus stop. One time I ordered a favourite book specifically to bookcross it. I wrote to the author and told her about my plan.This week I gave my husband a few copies of my own novel, "The Proper Order of Things" and asked him to leave them somewhere in his travels. Do you recognize the monument?
