Almost last call, the bookring is going to start at the 1st of July..
The book is:
An Italian in America (Beppe Severgnini)
http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/765403
The ring has two parts:

in the first one the book will travel around the USA collecting comments and thoughts of american bookcrossers

the second part of the ring is in Europe
To join
send me a PM the list is still open
BTW, I sent an e-mail to the author and he thanked me for launching the ring
Cat (still shocked after opening the e-mail today...)

I have already read the book, I wish to join just to read the comments by the Americans...
Severgnini is as funny and clever as can be, I love his books & articles.
Carla
P.S. His answering your e-mail only confirms my high opinion of him!

I really can't join this ring too

I remember that Severgnini gave a lot of space to BC on his webpage. We have to invite him to a meetup

Penelope, you had a great idea! You couldn't find a more suitable book fpr an International bookring

I agree with you! What about inviting him on our Mid-September meetup?

Doesn't that sound a bit funny to you that we post our messages in English as if we were foreigners

I guess that is goimg to help us improve our English...
Let's ask Beppe Severgnini in September, I think he is likely to come...

Again, exactly the same as I thought! Yes it's funny, I enjoy it because I haven't been talking/writing in English for some time.
This will give out foreign guests an idea of the kind of people they will find here... ahem ahem, will that attract them or make them run away?

P.S. Mi ero dimenticata di come siamo sempre d'accordo, cara principessa!

I think that perhaps it's better to wait september to invite Mr. Severgnini... and perhaps we can continue this discussion in the meetup area, so that here people can talk about Penelope's ring

Of course, Liber, I meant waiting until September
