Description: | |
In the first round, we swapped detective novels. Let's explore how truth is stranger than fiction, and swap True Crime novels this time around!! For this swap, each swapper should send at least one used True Crime book to their partner. To jazz up your package just a bit you could also include a letter talking about true crime novels that you have read, or would like to read -- or even about a strange criminal case from your local area. And maybe tuck in a free bookmark or two. Book stores and libraries are great places to get freebie bookmarks. Only send out used books that are in good condition. No water damage, spine damage, loose pages, missing covers, etc. Swappers need to have at least a 4.8 rating to swap with us. No recent 1 ratings. If you have a 1 rating that you can explain, then message me privately and we can talk it over. And, PLEASE, only sign up if you are 100% sure that you can send out a package. Since the swap only requires sending 1 book and a couple bookmarks, I'm not going to restrict it to the US only. So be mindful of the fact that you might receive an international partner before you sign up. After you sign up, post an informational note on the swap thread to give your partner an idea of what sort of True Crime books you like to read, or maybe even those you don't like. For instance, if books about serial killers give you sleepless nights, request that your book not be about a serial killer. BUT, since this is a used book swap, keep in mind that the sort of book you want might not be available at your partner's used book shop or on their bookshelves.....so don't give low ratings if the book you receive isn't exactly what you requested. Happy reading!!!! Juli (JP) |
