That would be awesome, if you get one of those postage paid backs, they are like $11 max and you can out up to 3kgs in it, that way its cheap!only issue is making sure it keeps moving... With the travelling book it STILL hasn't done all the rounds, I am trying to track it down now
The prepaid bag is a create idea! With 3kg we can put 6-7 book in the bag! I think if we were to do this thing we need some ground rules -1) You must put books in the box that are recent releases say 2010 onwards or something
2) They must be good condition
3) When you receive the box you must pass it along within a week
4) You must share what books you took out and what you put in :P
*n0ds* you should have a list, and then people cross off what the take and write up what they add. that way you can see all what was before and what not...
I agree time rule is ESSENTIAL!
If we can get enough ppl to sign up - we can do it ( Plus let's keep it YA?)
Yeah we can do that, if majority read YA
Sounds great! I think 2010 books and onward is a great idea, along with keeping it YA.
This sounds like heaps of fun. I'd be up for it!
I love this idea especially if it's YA only.
If we can get ten people to take part - I'll send out a box or something! :)
This sounds like fun, i'd be up for this too
I saw this post on Erica's blog - http://www.moonlightbookreviews.com/2... and basically the US bloggers have started a TRAVELLING book box idea!
What happens is that One person sends out a box of books and the next person on the list receives the box - takes out as many books has they want BUT they have to put the same amount of book back in the box from their own shelves! Then they mail the box to the next person and the process repeats!
I thought it was an excellent idea so I was wondering whether you guys were interested in doing a AUSSIE version of it? :3
