Book Crossing

In order to feel at home and part of my surrounding community, I decided to open a library account. Turns out reading in London can be quite expensive...

London Library: £16,800 annual membership (I'll think about it...)
British Library: £675 annual membership (Getting closer...)
Stratford Library: Free (But I now knew how the "other half" read...)

As I left the library, I spotted a Book Crossing book! A friend filled me in on this great project where people attach Book Crossing labels onto books and leave them around cities for others to pick-up, read and repeat. It's a global library and the label can be used to track how far the book has travelled. The book I found was liberated today by the author.
