Description:
  • Exchange one (1) body positive book with your partners that is $5 or less (shipping is not included in the $5 budget..expect to spend around $9 at most if you are in the USA).

  • You can send them directly from a book site to save on shipping (half.com or abebooks.com are my go-to sites for used books for CHEAP). You can send from home too!

  • New or used (but it will likely be used if its $5 or less)

  • If you already have a lot of body positive books, this may not be the swap for you! Please list in the comments below 1-2 body positive books you already have so that you partner can steer clear of those but please do not list more than 2.

  • Please also list some body positive books you are interested in. You might now get one from the list, however, your partner will get a better idea of what you may like.
