I'm a book freak and love using the paperbackswap site. Is there a site you use that's similar.. where you don't really pay anything but trade your books?

Above is the link to get to paperbackswap and use me as a referrer so I get a credit for a free book. It's so wonderful and I highly recommend it for anyone who loves to read!!!!!!

Thanks!
You will LOVE this!
I've rarely, only 1 time in over a year, received a book that wasn't in perfect condition! Most of them come looking like new!!!!!

I love to read alot. I didn't know they were such sites out there that would swap books like that though that sounds so cool and i'm going to check it out. I usually just swap books with family memebers but then after the three of us read them we usually discard them sometimes or give them away. But this sounds like a good idea.

It's so awesome to use and I know there are still people out there that have no clue it exists. I know there is one other site but cannot remember the name.
You can't beat not having to pay for the books and only paying shipping/postage for the ones you send out (which comes out to be about $1.59 for most all).
Join us and see how it works for you. There's no cost involved and no committment if you want to quit!

Thanks for the website. I have bags and bags of books. I used to take them to a used book store in town, but I already have 160.00 of credit there, I don't want to break the bank on a small business.

I so love the idea behind that site or sites like it...but I am so horrible about giving up my books. I rarely give up any. Unless I really didn't like the book, otherwise I hoard them all. I hardly ever go back to read them either, I just like to hoard.

lol... I used to think that way but any more I have soooooo many that I absolutely have to trade. Not to mention I rarely if ever read them over. So I finally bit the bullet and now I'm sooooo glad!

I have been a member a long time and have saved over $1000. Its a great way to try out a different genre of book without spending any money. You get credits to select books after you post 9 books and most of the books I have received are in great condition.

I am a member of paperbackswap and I really love this site. I have received many Mangas(japanese comics) from this site, making my collection quite large now. It is also a good way to save money and get books you may not be able to find in the book store.
