Following on from the chat about blind dates with books, speak up here if you fancy doing a book swap.

@tobee - not had mine either. I sent on at the beginning of the month, before the date change notification.

Fizzywinegum · 21/01/2019 18:00

Mine hasn’t arrived yet either - must admit I’m getting a bit cheesed off - don’t think it’s ever been on time.

RosehipHoney · 21/01/2019 21:18

I have posted, and got mine today.
Are we going to swap groups, and start again?

clairethewitch70 · 23/01/2019 10:07

Received mine today. Thank you

KeithLeMonde · 23/01/2019 13:20

@tobee @fizzywinegum any book yet?

Sorry I am away this week with work but will chase up if still MIA

Nothing as of right now, thanks for asking @KeithLeMonde

Fizzywinegum · 23/01/2019 14:22

I’m at work at the moment so not sure. RosehipHoney sends mine I think and said that she had posted it on 21/1 so hopefully it will be there when I get home - thanks for asking Keith

Fizzywinegum · 23/01/2019 18:03

My book and chocolate came today thanks

tobee · 24/01/2019 14:18

Mine's here now, too, thank you! Smile

Glad everyone has got their books Smile

I have just finished my final book, which I really liked (left a longer comment in the thread). I'm a bit sad that the swap has come to an end but very thankful for all the great books I have read which I probably would not have discovered otherwise. There has not been any that were disappointing - I enjoyed every single one, although for different reasons.

Personally I might step out if we are going to do another swap straight away, mainly because my pile of to-be-read at home is has grown a lot over the last couple of months (birthdays, etc) and I need to get on top of it. Would potentially be up for another swap at some point in the future though. Thanks again everyone for making this happen Smile

@Queenie72 I think the book I have is yours - would you like it back?

Queenie72 · 26/01/2019 11:45

It’s ok just give to a charity shop, thanks for asking
I think I’ll step out too, as I too have a pile of books to be read , it’s been fun , my 2 sons will miss the monthly chocs they managed to nab them before I got a chance !!

yaela123 · 26/01/2019 12:32

No problem Smile

diamantegal · 30/01/2019 13:14

I'm another one who'll step out please. I've enjoyed doing it, but the pile of TBR books by my bed is growing ever bigger, and with limited reading time available to me, I'd like to start working my way through that pile before it topples over!

iloveredwine · 10/02/2019 18:06

do we swap one more time then donate to charity or post back to the original book owner?

clairethewitch70 · 10/02/2019 21:56

I am ready to swap. I would love to stay in the book club if it continues. It would be great if group one and two could be swapped around somehow.

iloveredwine · 11/02/2019 09:53

will post the book I have today 😁

MessyMummy15 · 11/02/2019 09:57

Ooooh I wanna do it!!

MessyMummy15 · 11/02/2019 14:29

Ahhh damn. Just realised how late I am!! Would be deffo interested in another round!!

tobee · 11/02/2019 16:07

I think I'm going to duck out of continuing the swap as I've also got a massive lot of my own books piling up.

It's been good though. It's interesting to see what people have selected. It's also help me read more physical books again after using kindle and giving up after reading the sample.

Smile

Death by choc-lit group - this swap returns our books? Are we sending chocolate Grin

justcheese · 11/02/2019 19:19

Happy to still be part of the book swap if others are.

MyGastIsFlabbered · 11/02/2019 20:22

I loved doing this but am going to have to bow out for now. My reading pile is already sky high.

iloveredwine · 12/02/2019 09:25

sorry just posted mine today with chocolate 😋

clairethewitch70 · 12/02/2019 13:28

@iloveredwine - chocolate it is then Smile

clairethewitch70 · 12/02/2019 21:15

Posting tomorrow Smile
