  • Book Swap

    Okay, there's this thing that me and my bf used to do, it's where you "swap books" kinda... You can make someone to read a book of your choice and then they get to make you read a book of their choice. It's supposed to help us find books to read when we're bored. But if you guys think it's a good idea then NO new releases!! Otherwise the person is gonna have to buy a book, and most new releases are expensive. Only books that you can get or order from your library.
    Good idea? Or no?

          I think it's a great idea, but the only problem is that I have like 4 books in my must-read list.

                  We want to do it but we just don't know how. How about we set certin times for when we do it and all of us keep that time open.

                    I love the book I'm reading at the moment. It just probably won't fit many people's tastes. It's called This Lullaby and its by Sarah Dessen. Anyone read it?? So far the characters just jump right out at you, you can imagine what is going on. It's a really cool book. More like a girly book though. Actually I'd recomend it to anyone who likes that kind of book. So far (I'm only on page 153) it's really pretty good!!

                      I can always use another potential book to read, it certainly couldn't hurt. If I may, I would suggest Stephen King's 'The Gunslinger', the first book in his Dark Tower series. Very good, and seems to be the unofficial focus of all his stories.

                        Never heard of either of those.
                        Tanis: It's simpler than that. I know that Gryphon REALLY wants ppl to read Crusader, and I really want her to read To Visit the Queen, so I could just ask Gryphon to read To Visit the Queen, and then she could make me read Crusader in exchange, if she wants to. Which she might not cuz she didn't like TBONWM... But if it gets someone to read Crusader, she probly will.

                          How about we do a random drawing. All we would have to have is the books that we want to read and a list of ppl that want to proticepate.

                            That might work..... *shrug* either way, I think it's a good idea.

                              I'll do that. *Grumbles* Can't I read some other book??? Please? PLEASE??????????????

                              Aug fine. To Visit the Queen for Crusader. Crusader RULES!!!!!! Heh. I just swapped it for Tithes, though. My friend just finished Tithes and she said it was great. So the day after next, we swapped Crusader for Tithes. And I love it!!! (We didn't swap the next day because we both forgot to bring our books to school)

                              So... aug, I have to go to the library! Tonight or this weekend then. Okay, it's
