Online book club bookcrossing.com has reached such far-flung places as a remote Russian republic. Participants label a book’s inside cover with a tracking number and the Web site’s address, then stash it and post instructions online. Once a book’s pickup is logged, an e-mail is sent to whomever dropped it off. Part of the thrill is seeing how far a book can go.
