Online Book Swapping

Well this is kinda cool i live in halifax and my daughters love to read as well so your post was really awesome. How old is your daughter...I have an 11 year old step daughter, a 7 year old who is loving books of anything really, and a 2 year old but i don't think she will be doing much of her own reading....yet anyways i read to her all the time. But i will try those sites as well but how do book swapping sites work anyways? I would be very interested in that thanks book swavy

I am a member of bookcrossing.com and it certainly doesn't get you books if you live in a town like I do. Once in awhile I will get alerts as to books being released - very rarely do I ever find them. And I have released books that have not been acknowledged as being caught. There is a site called freesell - at least I think that is the name of it. I know of several people in Ontario who participate. It is not a "selling" site but giving away stuff you don't want to people who DO want them. You don't necessarily swap item for item. You just give away stuff to people who want them. You keep an eye on the site for stuff you want and then contact the "seller" and make arrangements for pick-up. I know someone who is on there. I can check and get the exact site link if you'd like.

You should look into bookmooch.com I'm pretty sure it's open to anybody in the world, but not everybody is willing to ship to other countries. Bookmooch works on a point system. You get points for listing and shipping books others and you use those points to mooch books from others.
