The idea behind the blog and instructions

Well I can not take all the credit for this idea. My dad actually gave me the basic premise. When I was at his house last (Thanksgiving) he gave me 2 books and told me to read them and then to give them to someone else and ask them to do the same. I decided to take it one step further. I wrote my name, the place I live (which may not be where the books were read) and the date completed. My plan is as the books get passed around each person will write the same info in the book prior to passing them along. Then they can come to this site and update the books location and others can come and check to see where the books have gone since they've left them.

How I see this working is simple:
Read the book
Write your name, date completed and your location and who you pass it to.
Come to the blog and input that info in the comments section for that book.
Pass the book on to someone and ask them to do the same.
Check out the blog to see where your books ahve been passed.

Have a book you'd like to pass:
Email me a picture of the cover and a brief description of the book and I'll gladly add it our "Pass the Books" book list. Which is available at the bottom of the blog.
