Still have no idea what is BookCrossing? I've not much of an idea about it either! Haha.
From what I've gathered BookCrossing is a place where you get to 'free' your books and pass it around for other people to read it. It's about sharing your books to other people by using BookCrossing as the main platform for it. FYI, BookCrossing is known as the World's biggest free bookclub! At least, that's what they claimed! =P
However, from my observation, most people ended up sitting around on the sofas to relax their sore feet out of shopping instead of actually 'hanging out' over at the zone to read books that are supposedly to be shared in the white cupboard. Worse was the amount of books that are stored in the cupboard. From the last time I saw it, that was during Christmas last year, there were somewhere less than 20 books perhaps inside there.
I still think the Malaysian public are not really aware of the whole point 1Utama is placing the BookCrossing zone in their mall. Anyways, most of us have no idea what is BookCrossing in the first place. If only we can hype the whole BookCrossing agenda to the public, perhaps I would be reading more 'free' books by now. Haha.
On that note, I still have my novels to be 'given' away and let's hope people will come to this blog and probably purchase one or two books from me. =)
