Book Exchange
I need to know if you think this will work…So, if you lurk and don’t comment, now is the time to tell me what you think.
I’m thinking about having a commenting book exchange. I would give my book to the first commenter, the first commenter would give there’s to the second, etc. I think I would only include the first 20 people, so it doesn’t get complicated.
Let me know what you think…
Pay It Forward
Overwhelmed with Joy is hosting her Pay it Forward book exchange again.
These are the guidlines…Here are the guidelines for my Pay It Forward Book Exchange.
Most all of us love to read and get “new-to-us” books, right? And if you’re anything like me, you love winning things (what a rush), not to mention getting fun stuff in the mail! So here’s what this book exchange is all about:
1) On the first Monday of each month I’ll pick a couple of books to give away to two lucky readers (you don’t have to have a blog to enter). It may be a book that I’ve purchased new or used, or it may be a book that someone has shared with me that I really like. It’ll probably be a paperback, just to make things easier, but no guarantees.
2) Details on how you can enter to win will be listed in each monthly post.
3) If you’re the lucky winner of the book giveaway and you have your own blog I ask that you, in turn, host a drawing to give that book away for free to one of your readers, after you’ve had a chance to read it (let’s say, within a month after you’ve received the book). If you mail the book out using the media/book rate that the post office offers it’s pretty inexpensive. If you’re a non-blogger who has won the book, please consider donating the book to your local library or shelter after you’re done with it.
4) If you’re really motivated and want to host your own “Pay It Forward” giveaway at any time this month, feel free to grab the button above to use on your own blog. Just let me know so I can publish a post on my blog plugging your giveaway and directing my readers your way!
So there you have it, my Pay It Forward Book Exchange, designed to encourage people to read, to share good books, to possibly get you out of your reading comfort zone, and to get fun stuff in the mail instead of just bills!
I am participating in the book exchange with the book Prep.
I enjoyed it ok. It was the first book I’ve read in a long time!
