Book swap

UCM · 07/05/2006 00:16

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.

Or the 1st of the month.

bresha · 07/06/2006 08:56

Waite till the end of the month! That’s ages away! Well if every one hasn’t finish there book yet then we will have to hold off, every one has got to promise to send on time though, otherwise we will have people getting books late again, iv finished mine so I can post any time

Glad you liked the book UCM - I was stressed about it ever since I posted it!

Glad to see you back

Hello, can I join please?
Do I send my details to UCM? It looks like you have a swap coming up soon, and I have a nearly finished book I could put in ... if I'm not too late?

Thanks.
