Anyone interest in books Swap?

[Moony]

I thought this was going to be like: I have these books and I'm looking for these books. This swap idea sounds fun though too

[tulagirl]

Hey I was just wondering would this be a swap that could include any type of book? Lets say I want a vintage children's book really bad thats not expensive and can be found on ebay...could I put that on a list? Or what if I want a coloring book? Or other children's books? Or a Fashion Angels Fashion design kids art book? I love those and there are a few I don't have yet. Vintage books?  I would be very interested if I didn't have to put brand new titles and novels as I don't need those.  Can you explain what types of books we are allowed to ask for on a wishlist?

tulagirl I think it could be all sorts of books, as long as they're available and not expensive! Although it's up to whoever will run the swap to decide, but I do think it's best to include all types.

Oh okay thanks Lemontwist, I thought the OP was going to be the one to do this swap if there was enough interest and then I noticed I misread that.  LOL

I think one of us should just go ahead and write up some rules, if Marea isn't interested in hosting

Book swaps are a lot of fun! I've participated in a few book box swaps on another site. It was done a bit differently though. The organizer put together a box of books (only books so it could be shipped by media mail) and put in a journal. There was a list of us that signed up to participate and where arranged on the list by where we lived and the box was shipped from one participant to another according to the list. Each person when they got the box could take what ever books they wanted but had to replace them with an equal number/ condition of books. The journal was for listing which books you took and which you put in as well as personal notes and greetings. It was alot of fun. although it did take awhile to make the round to everyone. We tried to keep a good mix of genres in the box. The nice thing was you didn't have to search or buy any books you could put in ones you'd already read and I found some stories I loved that I never would have found otherwise. Shipping wasn't to bad between 15 to 20$ for a box of 10 to 25 books.

We need to find a host, if Mareacooda doesn't want to! I'd volunteer but I have no experience. Not that I'm not willing just that I don't want anyone to feel like they can't trust the swap host xD I definitely have enough time on my hands though, that's for sure.

You've been here a while and have a good reputation, though. Maybe PM a mod and ask if it would be appropriate for you to host it?

I would volunteer to host (and would love to!) but I reaaallly don't have the time. I definitely want to participate though!

[lemontwist]

Awww, shucks    It sounded to me like Mareacooda was looking to host it, but if not and no one more qualified is up for the task, I'm here lol. Otherwise I'd still at least be willing to help whoever hosts too if need be.

I would love to do this, I have been looking for someone new "fantasy/mythical" books to get into without much luck xD maybe someone else would have better luck picking something out for me haha.
