8.If you happen to be visiting London this summer,there's a chance that you'll find books left on the seat of some bus or subway for you.Books on the Underground is a really simple idea:leave a book you love for a stranger to find and ask them to release it back into the world when they are done with it.
Last year,Harry Potter star Emma Watson joined in the movement as a"book fairy (仙女)"who dashed around the London Underground to hide books for passengers.The actress dropped off copies of Maya Angelou's Mom & Me & Mom,the November pick for her online book club Our Shared Self.Watson left about 100 books with some including a hand-written note.In it,she wrote that she hoped the reader would enjoy the book,and urged them to leave it on the tube afterwards for others to find.
Cordelia Oxley,director of Books on the Underground,said:"We were delighted to have Emma Watson share the latest Our Shared Shelf book club choice,and she even wrote a lovely note to go inside the books.It was Emma's idea to be a Book Fairy for the day!"
"The reaction has been phenomenal.It must be a mixture of how much everyone adores Emma,and how exciting it is to find something as wonderful as a new book on your journey."
