29-Day Giving Challenge

  • Book Club member, Mark, shared about the idea of keeping a gift in motion.  Mary thought we should gift books and keep them in Motion.  So here we go ...

 

Here's how it's going to work:

  • Anyone who has a book to give can post it (Title and Author) as a reply in this discussion.
  • If someone sees a book posted and would like to be gifted with that book, let the poster know. 
  • This is where you now need to make sure you are "friends" with the person on this site.  (Send them a friend request if you are not).  Once you are friends with the poster you are able to send them messages.  Send them a message telling them you'd like to be gifted with their book and giving them your address to send the book to.  Note: Please make sure you send your address in a message and DO NOT post your address directly on this site.
  • Next, the poster sends out the book.  Also, please then remove that book from this discussion so people do not continue to request a book that has already been gifted.

 

  • Finally, once the receiver of the gifted book is finished with it, they MUST gift it to another.  It can be reposted on this discussion and given to another site member or passed on to someone else you know, but it must be regifted (tell the next recipient to regift it too).  Keep the book in motion!!

 

***It'll be interesting to see if any of our posted books are on here reoccuringly and how many site members get their turn at those books. : )

Deb, so glad you joined Bookmooch - they just celebrated their 5 year birthday.  What is your member name and I'll "friend" you.  I'm czechmate.

Angel falls is also gone at this time.  On bookmooch they really go fast. 

 

yes they do. i got a notice yesterday that a book i wanted was available. i replied within 15 minutes of the email but it had already been mooched :(  oh, well. maybe when that person finishes they'll relist it.

Mary you and I are already friends on Bookmooch, but they just go by Deb on there. Guess I missed the place for screen name.  Hope your new job is going great for you.  Love and Blessings deb

for any of you who read Shanghai Girls, by Lisa See...i just finished reading her new book, Dreams of Joy. it is absolutely mesmerizing! i literally could not put it down.  Hugs, Dawn
