Description:

Side note: I told holly that once I became an officer it would probably take a few weeks for me to have a chance to host because I was busy. But then I just couldn't resist.

I'm not sure how many of you will be up for this idea but I think it's fun so I'm giving it a try!

For this swap you will send one partner a book you didn't like. That's right! One you did NOT like! Just because you didn't like it doesn't mean someone else won't. So give that book a new home where it may be appreciated by someone else!

Also include in the package one bag of tea, one packet of instant coffee, or one packet of hot chocolate so they have something nice and warm to drink while reading. Please list allergies or extreme dislikes below, but please no specific requests. If your partner doesn't leave a comment, it's sender's choice.

And I realize this is subjective, but please don't send a book that you didn't like because it turned out to be offensive or inappropriate. If in doubt, don't send is the rule here.

Any questions please PM me.

US only to keep postage low.

No requirements to join because we shouldn't have flakers in this group. I reserve the right to ban anyone I think can't uphold their end of the swap.

Interesting idea! I will look through my massive number of books and see if there's one I don't like!! (There have been plenty, but I tend to dump them pretty quickly! :)

Oh my gosh... I just spent three days cleaning and organizing, and gave a kazillion books away, and didn't save ONE! But I am going to go back through and find one. :)

I really ABHOR coffee... but if you only have little packets of coffee, don't go buy tea or hot cocoa just for this swap if you are my partner, because my husband will LOVE it and will thank you endlessly. (in his head, not verbally)

Part with a precious book? I think I can...I think I can...

I found one!! I loved the first story in it, never could finish the second. Love the author, too, so I don't feel like I am mailing someone crap!! :)
