Hey everyone Inspired by “Wanderbuchpaket” that @Phantasia8 organizes, we would like to start sharing our English books the same way. This is how it works: I put some used English books and a list with the addresses of everyone participating in a box and send it to the first address. If you get the box, you take out as many books as you like to keep and put the same amount of books you’re ready to give away into the box. Then you send the box to the next address. Like that, our read books can bring someone else pleasure and we get new books for free. :-) If you want to participate, send me your address in a private message and I’ll add you to the list.

We need some more people who’d like to join, do you know anyone else who could be interested?

Oh thats exciting, I would love to join!

Do you think we should start with 7 people or should we wait for more participants? Maybe we just start and if anyone wants to join later, they can for the next round? I don’t have the address of everyone, can everyone that hasn’t yet send me your address in a private message?

Meggie I think 7 people could be enough, although I don´t know how many people there usually are in the german book sharing group, for a comparison.

I’m excited to start a round, so let’s just do it with the 7 of us

English book sharing

Rosali

LooonyMcJean would you like to part of the next round? I’ll send it off in about a week

LooonyMcJean

Rosali Yes, I’d love to.

Bithya

Rosali Will you put me either at the top or end of the list, please?

Rosali

Bithya Is it ok for you, when you receive the parcel until next Thursday, as I already have others who prefer to be at the end because of holidays?

Bithya

Rosali perfect!

Rosali

So finally I’m on the way to the postoffice, than the parcel will arrive at @Bithya on thursday.

I hope the mailing order suits for all the holidays:

and finally back to me :-)

Rosali

Hopefully there’s a book for everyone. I’ve packed:

Colleen Hoover – Maybe Not
Ben Aaronovitch – Rivers of London
Silvia Moreno-Garcia – Gods of Jade and Shadow
Rachel Gibson – Blue by you
Debbie Macomber – Dear Santa
Sherrilyn Kenyon – The Dream-Hunter
Kate Jacobs – Comfort Food
John Elder Robinson – look me on the eye (sorry my rabbits had a little nibble on that one)
Olivia Dade – At First Spite
Jed Rubenfeld - The Death Instinct
Beth O’Leary – The Switch
Robert Goddard – The Corners of the Globe
James Patterson - 8^th confession
Diane Chamberlain – The Silent Sister
Nora Roberts – Vision in White

It would be interesting to know, where the books go.

I copied the general rules from @stephiesheena resp. @Bithya:

Ich verschicke das Paket mit einigen Büchern (Englisch) an die erste Person auf der Liste
Diese Person nimmt die Bücher raus, die ihr gefallen und legt die gleiche Anzahl wieder rein
Bitte achtet auf die Qualität der Bücher (z.B. keine Bücher mit Wasserschaden, die auseinanderfallen, die stark verschmutzt sind, oder in denen Seiten fehlen)
Weitersenden des Pakets an die nächste Person auf der Liste
Schön wäre es, wenn man jeweils meldet, wenn das Buch angekommen ist und wann man es weiterschickt, sodass die anderen Teilnehmer wissen, dass es nicht irgendwo untergegangen ist. Zudem darf man gerne schreiben, was man rausgenommen und dafür reingelegt hat

Bithya

Bithya

Nore Hi! Actually this rund was organized by @Rosali and I am not sure if it is still possible to join, but for sure next rund.

Nore

Bithya @Rosali sure would love to join the next round!

Rosali

Nore As we don’t manage to start a new round so often (it takes us all quite a while to have enough english books that we’re willing to give away), so I’ll try to squeeze you in at the end of this round.

Rosali

The package has arrived back at my place and somehow the books managed to multiply. Thanks guys 🤩
Some books made the whole tour and came back to me and some new ones sound really interesting.

So sorry @Nore that you didn’t find a book for yourself, but thanks so much for the note. Hope everyone else enjoyed this round.

It will take me quite a while to collect enough books for a new parcel. So if any of fancies to pass on her/his staple, go for it.

Stephbe

Rosali Hello, I would love to join this group. Is that possible? 🙂

MaSc81
