The Act of Leaving Your Books in Random Places.

Have you ever done that? Left a book in a cafe, public transport, park bench or bus stop. Left it for someone else to stumble upon it and begin reading it? I did this yesterday (yes, sorry I haven't been posting for a while, I was in Scotland), and left Adele Park's Spare Brides on Edinburgh Trams. See what I thought of that book here.

Despite my negative experience reading the book, I wanted the stranger who picked up my book to have a positive reading experience. So I left a little message on the flycover : 'Howdy, Please read me & enjoy ^_^'.

Recently, I found a website, bookcrossing, where you can track the travels of your 'released' book. I'm not a member of bookcrossing yet, but next time I want to 'release' a book, I'll use bookcrossing, and tell everyone on here!

Would you ever leave a book in a public place?

(Obviously don't leave it in a shop, charity shop or library.)

What are your opinions on leaving books??
