Word on the Street Release-fest!

So this past Sunday was The Word on the Street in Victoria Park in Kitchener (and in some other cities across Canada). I decided to put my release bags to good use on our drizzly Saturday night by doing a mass release around the park.
I've gotten my boyfriend really into the idea of leaving books everywhere for people to find, so I enlisted his help for this one. We filled two grocery bags with books sealed in ziploc bags, and set off on our mission.

Here's the link to the crossing zone:

I also had three (so far) journalled! Two were the same night by the same person, and one was just tonight. Here's the links:

I am very happy that they're getting journalled - my catch rate has gone up a lot more lately, maybe because I'm releasing a lot more. :)

Starting out with a catch!

I figured I would start this blog on a good note: A recent catch!

I'm participating in the Never Judge a Book By Its Cover challenge. It's a lot of fun, I started late though. This was the first time I've gotten a catch through a release challenge. :) Finally!
