This is our 2nd in a series of book swaps using a new letter of the alphabet each time. I love reading and love the chance to share books I have read, and I know lots of you do too. This is our International swap. I also have a USA only swap for the same thing if anyone is interested in that. For this swap you will read one book using the letter "B" for either the author name or the book name. For example, for "B" you could read any book by the author Clive Barker, or you could read a book called "Blackwood Farm" by Anne Rice. This can be a book you have already read or a new one you have been wanting to read, or maybe an old favorite you want to re-read. When you have read your book, you will send the book on to your partner, with a note about why you chose the book, what you liked about it or maybe didn't like about it, a connection you made to the book's characters, etc. Sort of a book club of one! Hopefully we will all get to read some new books or discover a new author or genre. A nice touch would be for each partner to then send a thank you after reading the book and letting your partner know how you liked the book. So, each person reads one book, sends the book and a note about the book, on to their partner. Maybe tuck a new bookmark in with the book. Since some people don't have as much time to read as others, I am giving a little extra time. However, you don't have to wait to get your partners assigned to start reading. This is not profile based. Also, please don't rate on whether you liked the book, but on whether you received the book. I will allow newbies as you have to start somewhere! But be sure you are able to commit to this before signing up. Everone else must have a rating of 4.8 or higher. If you have anything questionable on your profile, please message me to discuss it. I will check profiles before assigning partners. This isn't a hard swap, but everyone deserves to receive the swap items agreed upon, so be respectful of that. And Happy Swapping! |
