Book swap

I am thinking that we should do a book swap. You send a book to someone who sends a book to someone and so on. It doesn't matter if you didn't like the book, the next one might please you.

Any takers???????????????????????

I am a fan of Harlan Coben, Denise Ryan and Marian Keyes, Stuart Macbride.

we could go with 3 weeks to start then just post here if we think we'll finish early/late.

Well I spose the way it will work is we all sign up, then every 3 weeks you pass on a book, to whomever. The more people who join the better.

Is three weeks ok, I read a book if its good in 2 days!!!!

we could do an aussie one - I'd be up for that... have a cupboard of books I have read and can pass on..... perhaps if you don't want the book back the recipient can donate it to library or something when read if it is in an okay state....

Suzy, Eids, if we hurry up I have books to pass on here...

UCM - I am in Australia - expensive for you to send to me and if I use the cheap option - sea mail - take up to 3 months.

Well I think that we need at least 8 of us. It will be very good, as we will end up reading books that we hadn't before and maybe finding some new authors. If it's just us 4 not to worry, we will make it a bit more select.

Doubt it no more than 1.50 2nd class. It will be fun. Also 1.50 is nothing for a book, providing we all agree that they will be paperbacks.

I might be able to part with a book.... (It would be hard though!!!) I read absolutely anything Grin

WigWamBam · 07/05/2006 13:20

Oooh, I might be up for that ...

eidsvold · 07/05/2006 13:19

I would love to but it would cost too much in postage Sad

nikkie · 07/05/2006 11:11

I am up for that!
