message 1: by Claudia (new)

Claudia (claudiamartori) Hi everyone!
I've done this already with someone from goodreads, but it was such a great experience that I'd like to do it again and with more people. Would anyone like to do a book exchange? We could look at the books the other one likes and send them one or two books from our bookshelf that we think they might like. What do you think? If you are interested please message me!
We could also do a book exchange with a lot of people, kinda like Secret Santa. There are webpages where you can include all the names and then you get a name saying the person you have to send a book to.
Anyway, let me know what you think!!

Raquel | 39 comments This sounds great! Do we buy the book and not get it back but someone else gives you or is it a swap for a bit? Sounds great either way!


message 8: by Claudia (new)

Claudia (claudiamartori) You don't need to actually buy a book, you can get one from your bookshelf that you think the other person might like and you get another book from another person. You don't get the book back, but you get to keep another book that you haven't read which is great.

I think maybe we could create a fecebook group or something with everyone interrested and talk it through. What do you think?

Thanks! And I think that is a great idea!

Claudia (claudiamartori) Do you think we should create a facebook group with everyone interested to talk about the exchange, then?

Darby | 217 comments I have a few books I'd be willing to send off :) I get most of mine for free because I just walk off with them after work. It's a volunteer position at a used book store, and I'm one of the only ones who ever does any real work anyway so I've earned them

message 14: by Claudia (new)

Claudia (claudiamartori) No one replied so I decided not to do the group. I'll create it and let you know so you can join in :)
