lmsmith Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Mods - please feel free to take this down if you think it breaches the rules, but I think this is such a cool thing we can all get involved in The FNAZS Holiday Book Exchange! It's like Secret Santa, except instead of buying a gift, you send along one of your paperbacks-- something you've read and loved, that you think someone else might read and love. Note that you will have to have a proper mailing address to participate. Once you've signed up, you may PM your real name and address to me. Your address will only be seen by me, and the person who draws your name. The names will literally be drawn from a hat, no matchmaking or name picking. : ) Drawing will take place at MIDNIGHT, December 13th. Once drawn, your secret recipient's name & address will be PMed to your forum inbox. Any takers? Sign up by replying to this thread (your name will be added to the list below). Make sure you've signed up by December 13th, so we have time to pull names and mail out books.

supasi Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 I, like Caryl, love my books and just couldnt bear to pass them on. I am currently rereading the books of one of my fav authors Tom Holland. Great idea, but I treasure my book collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lmsmith Posted December 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Maybe more people would be keen to participate if their books were returned. Maybe we should include a bookmark with the return address on it so people return them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southerrrngirrl Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 I think so. The book I was thinking of submitting, I've only read once but am keen to read it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmsmith Posted December 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 ok cool, I think that would be a better idea. Recipient is responsible for returning the book after they have read it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
