Description:
A lot of people have old books lying around that either never got read in the first place or will never get read again. I know I have a few books like these!! The idea of this swap is that you have one partner who you send your unloved book to, giving it a new home, and in return you get a new book to read,appreciate and enjoy. One book, one partner, easy! If you do want to go out and buy a book for this swap (feel free to!) try to keep the value to roughly Â£3-Â£5 ($4.5-$8). Newbies with well filled out profile welcome. No unexplained 1s or 3s. I will be checking swappers for reliability. This swap was inspired by @Angrychickenknits 'Favourite Paperback' swap. Happy Swapping! Let's get reading!

"old" - does this mean that the book has to be antique in some way? Or an old classic? Or just a book that has been lying aroung unloved for a very long time?

So many great book swaps at the moment! Thanks for hosting.

Heya, thanks for your question. For this swap I mean a book that has been lying around at home. It can be a classic, but it is up to you. ^_^

Heya, I was wondering if people want me to move the dates a little so we can get our books quicker? I was thinking just a couple of days of the sign up and a few days off the swap date? Let me know! ^_^

since this is international: I am German but I will send a book in English.(or German if you can read German, tell me!) I would love to get a book in German or English.

Have two books I'm ready to send out- one is religious themed (kinda, it's the story of a victim of the Columbine shootings- SO touching, but with a bit of a religious undertone) so I'm just waiting to see if my partner is Religious!

Hey all!

I've just assigned partners... The link for it took a while to come up.

Happy swapping!
