*A lot of people do this, and it's a great way to find interesting stuff to read when travelling. You just have to keep your eyes open. I try to both find and contribute books. If I finish a book while travelling, I'll leave it in the next airport lounge. Feel free to pick it up.

did you pick up a couple of Superman comics from the WorldClub at Reagan last Tuesday? They weren't left behind.
