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. :)

  1. Hi. I just came to check this out. I saw one of your posts on bookcrossing.com and realized that you are not too far from me, so I wanted to check out your links here. I wanted to let you know that I clicked the first one but it keeps giving me these results

    Server Error
    Sorry. Looks like you've run into an unexpected error.

    Sorry, there are no hunting results available for this location. Please check your input and try again.

    I tried 5 times just to be sure before posting here.
    ETA: had to let you know that the word I was given for word verification was traveling, which I thought was kind of neat since the post is about bookcrossing , and traveling books!!
