Ok -- I am ready to take the plunge as an exchange organizer!

Pass on a book you have already read and receive something new to read.

PM your name, user name, address, email address, and your preferred reading genre to me by April 30th.

Names will be sent out by May 3.

Mail by May 10. (It shouldn't take long to mail since we won't have to shop!)

I am very excited about doing my first exchange!
 
That's a great idea. I have sooooo many books... I read probally three or more a week! :)
 
Is it just one book per exchange? If we wanted to "trade" more than one book, would we do multiple sign ups or what? Since we are already paying for shipping wouldn't it make sense to do more than one book?
 

If anyone wants to exchange more than one add it to your PM--I will try to match people with similar tastes, etc.
 
I have a question too ;)
Last time we did this Rajah went to a lot of trouble and matched people to books they were interested in. I take it this time it is just take whatever you are sent?
So we could get something we already have or have already read or that we aren't interested in?

I was asking for genre, so I can try to match people to the style they prefer. If you have additional suggestions for matching people/books, I would love to hear them!

Please PM more information if possible.
 
Did you send a PM to Rajah?
She had a list of all books and had people list their 1, 2, 3....etc. choices.
And they could receive as many as they sent....but not all got sent, because some books, no one was interested in.
It was quite complicated and Rajah is the one to talk to if you want to go more in detail like that.....otherwise, anyway you are planning is fine :)
 
Don't forget to PM Gaspode so she can put it on the Exchange Index.

Personally, I am willing to take the risk. I have so many paperbacks that I have enjoyed, that I can only hope that a few of mine bring enjoyment to others. But, of course, I am one with eclectic tastes. The story has to grab me, regardless of genre!
 
Can we choose an author instead of a genre? I consider the series I've started to be a genre in its own right. I'm thinking about getting in on this 1, but not sure just yet.


:wave:
 
October Bride -- go ahead and list the author and I will see what I can do to find you a book that you will enjoy.
