Added Pashazade to the list.

Will allocate postal partners on Monday by PM. If we can post so that the books arrive by the beginning of each month. I will start threads for each book. Please write your mumsnet user name on the inside cover so we can tell which book we have.
Thanks

Still time and space for more if anyone still wants to join PM me by Monday

PM's are going out today to tell you where to send book and chocolate. It will be sent to the same person each month unless we have to make some adjustments.

Please write your MN user name on the inside cover so we can track books for reviewing.

Chocolates - around £1.50 -£2, one or two bars to this rough total. Diet restrictions if any will be in your PM.

If we can aim to post so books arrive for the 1st of each month please.

I will start a thread for each of your books, please write a review of your book, and each book you receive.

Heres to a successful swap Smile

Thanks for organising this Clairethewitch. It sounds like a lot of fun. Although I think I'm most looking forward to getting chocolate in the post Grin

@MsAwesomeDragon - I'm sending to you. Chocolate is always the best bit Grin

@newroundhere - there are 9 of us. So 8 books to each of us, then the last will be our own.

I love these swaps when they all run smoothly

Pashazade, thats what I like about these swaps. I have read some really awesome books that I would have walked past in a bookshop. Genres that I have never read before also. Discovered some new authors.

Totally agree, I'm really looking forward to being introduced to some new books. Also really interested to hear what people think of the one I have picked!
