This is why I love themed releases!
I used to theme so many of my BookCrossing releases. But I haven't been wild releasing too much lately in general.
I was checking out the used book shelf at the library on Pi Day (3/14/15) and saw Life of Pi. So I quickly sped home and registered the book. Then I went out and found an excuse to go to the grocery store.
Once upon a time, I was nervous about reverse shoplifting with BookCrossing books (leaving books in a store instead of buying them). But no longer! So I boldy walked straight over to the pie section, left the book, and took some photos.

I was so pleased with the release. And yesterday it was journaled by someone who totally understood my themed release! And that's why I love themed releases. When the person who finds it totally gets it, they journal it.
"I found the book sitting on the pies in the Giant because I was looking for some pie to eat since it was Pi day. I thought it was pretty clever to leave the Life of Pi on some pies on Pi day. I read the book back in high school and I liked it. It is a good book for all audiences and it has a fantastic story. Hope the next person to find it enjoys it."
