Q: What do you do with books you no longer want? Do you donate them? Do you take them to a half-price bookstore? Does a friend or family member benefit? (submitted by Elizabeth @ Silver’s Reviews)
A: My first inclination is to share my unwanted books with the people I know, because they might like a book that doesn’t speak to me. I will usually bring these books to work or pass them to a family member. If I don’t think I know anyone who will like them, I will bring them to a charity shop. I really want to try Bookcrossing though. I think it would be so much fun to see where a book has gone around the city/country/world.
My own question to my readers is: Do you use Bookcrossing? If not, would you?
Book Blogger Hop is a weekly meme hosted by Coffee Addicted Writer that runs from Friday to Thursday.
Visit other blogs in the list and comment on their posts. Try to spend some time on the blogs reading other posts and possible become a new follower. The purpose of the hop is to give bloggers a chance to follow other blogs, learn about new books, befriend other bloggers, and receive new followers to your own blog.
I usually donate books I don’t want, but I do like the idea of trying Bookcrossing so I might do that this summer so that the books have a higher chance of being picked up by tourists.

I don’t know what Bookcrossing is, but would like to find out. It definitely would be fun to see where the books end up.
I donate books too, but check with family and friends first.
ENJOY your weekend, and Happy Hopping!!

I’ve never heard of Bookcrossing. If it a book I really don’t want, then I’ll donate it to the library book sale.
