I've been a member of Bookcrossing for a few years, but every once in a while I actually free a few books. I'm going to drop these at Aroma Coffee & Tea later today.
It's a great concept. You mark books, register them, and release them into the wild. You hope that the person who picks them up leaves a comment about them. It's only happened to me once in the 27 releases.
Hope lives...
Cool Thing du Jour #1 : Bonny Doon Vineyard's website, where I went to find information about their terrific wine labels and was not disappointed. If you click on Learn Our Ways, and then Label Artists you'll get a nice look at their label art and the people behind it.
Cool Thing du Jour #2: The amazing art of Bascove, which I discovered because she's designed labels for the aforementioned Bonny Doon Vineyard. I love her subject matter and the way she treats it. It's reminscent of Diego Rivera and of some of the industrial art of the 1930s that I adore. Check out her whole portfolio if you go.

I like the Bookcrossing idea but I wonder if I'd be able to let my books go if I really love them. I tend to reread the ones I like so frequently. I give the ones I'm not too crazy about to Goodwill.
Well, see... I don't give away my favorites. I keep those. But someone else may like these more than I did. Goodwill gets my clothes and household stuff.
I like the idea of someone eventually commenting on one of them. Hope, hope!
Love that picture and hope you enjoy BookCrossing!
Best,
