This sounds like great fun for book lovers. The idea is you read a book, register it online, then leave it in a public spot for someone to find. Then the process starts all over again. Check it out at www.bookcrossing.com

Friends are the best collectables.

I have heard about that before! It is a really neat idea, but I would spend way too much money buying books all the time! I like to re-read great books! LOL

So what do you do? Take the book and read it and then hide it again? Sounds like a lot of fun!
