But that's all part of the charm of a bookring. You receive the book, read it and pass it on. You can put a note in with the book for the next reader. The book is registered on bookcrossing.com so it has its own journal and each reader can put their note there too. I think it would be lovely to share in this way just for the cost of the postage. I am giving you the ISBN so that you can try to get it locally but if you can't get it you can still join the bookring.
