Description:

For this swap, I will pick a different book each month for particpants to read. Book picks will be books that are widely accessable at bookstores, thrift shops, and libraries. You do not need to purchase the book for the swap, but can if you wish.

You will read the book and write a letter to your partner about it. What did you like? What would you change? Was there a character that you related to? One that annoyed you? Feel free to compare it the movie if there is one based on the book. You can also start reading the book as soon as you sign up for the swap.

March's Pick: The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky

Particpants must have a rating of 4.5 or higher with no recent 1s. Unrated swapers welcome with a well filled out profile.

I'm glad people are enjoying the swaps. I haven't read this month's pick yet, so I hope it's good. It has been widely reccommended and has good reviews, so it should be okay. I wanted to pick a wide variety of books and just classics like the first two books.

This was one of my favorite books for a looong time! I'd love an excuse to re-read it! I'm pretty sure I lent my copy out to someone, I have to see if I could find it...

i have read the review of this book and it looks like a great book. I really like this swap idea..

I'm having a little trouble deciding for next months picks. I have it narrowed down to these three: "Because of Winn-Dixie" by Kate DiCamillo, "Riding in Cars With Boys" by Beverly Donafrio, or "Agusta Gone" by Martha Tod Dudman. What do you think?

I love this book, I read it in middle school and still have it on my shelf. I'm happy I get to re-read it!

Partners have been assigned and April's swap is up and running. I ended up picking Because of Winn Dixie becasue I thought that would be the easiest for people to find - not every bookstore caries copies of the other two books, and I haven't seen them at too many thrift shops. I've seen Because of Winn-Dixie at both.
