Starting in 2019, I’ve organized a Christmas book exchange every holiday season. It’s become one of my favorite things!

I love it because . . .

*It’s a fun and festive way to support authors of Christian (or clean and wholesome) fiction.

*Each participant is paired with another reader. You give a book to your partner, she gives a book to you. So the exchange increases your circle of bookish friends.

*When readers start receiving their books, they post about them in my Facebook group. It’s been a delight to see what each person received. (And a bit of a danger because you might come away from those posts with 100 new ideas for your TBR pile.)

To take part in this year’s exchange, simply fill out this form! You’ll receive an email from me in late November or early December providing you with all the information you’ll need to give a book to your partner. I know finances can be a barrier, so gifting a gently used book is perfectly fine. Most readers request paperbacks, but you can also request ebook and audiobook formats! And international readers can take part.

If you’re on Facebook, I’d love for you to join my group here. However, I know some of you aren’t on Facebook. So, feel free to sign up for the exchange, regardless of whether you’re a Facebook person. You can still give and receive a book in the spirit of Christmas generosity toward your fellow bookworms!

In 2019, we had 99 participants. In 2024, we were up to 180! Repeatedly, readers tell me how much they enjoy the exchange and that they look forward to it every year.

I invite YOU to take part, lovely Inspired by Life community!
