Do check out this site if you haven't already. Especially if today isn't special to you, and even more so if there's someone who insists that it should be!

Valentine's day is nothing more than an opportunity to play on people's guilt in order to get them to buy, buy, buy.
If you wait for this day to express your true feelings then that's pretty sad. Do you really need to be told when and how to express your love?

I'm so glad we don't value the day as much here in the Netherlands up until now, even though this specific kind of commercialism is slowly creeping up on us lately... and we see more and more red, heart-shaped crap in the stores every year.

On the other hand, any reason for releasing a lot of BookCrossing books is a good reason, so I'm spreading 26 books with love related titles today ;-)

But hey, at least I'm doing something no one is making money on!
