Bookcrossing

I have recently become obsessed with Pulitzer Prize-winning fiction. I set out on a quest to have them on my shelf... but I have a big problem. I already have shelves full of books that I have yet to read. So.....
I am going to resolve not to buy another book unless I finish one and set it free on bookcrossing.com.
The next goal... finish the books that I have started! I am in the middle of "The Help," but I keep putting it down for some reason. In the meantime, I finished "People of the Book," by Geraldine Brooks and I am almost finished with "Water for Elephants," by Sara Gruen.
I need to stay out of bookstores...especially the big Disneyland of bookstores, Half Price Books.
But while I'm buying books I don't need.... I keep coming across things like love notes and other random book markers that keep me pouring through the aisles!!! And I end up buying more books for my already full shelves.
My new motto: READ AND RELEASE
