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

Ok, I’ll start the first week of November. Rosali will send me the addresses she has, the others will get a private message from me. Up to now we have @Stephbe @LooonyMcJean @stephiesheena @Meggie @The-Lord-Pepper @melos @Alexilexi and @Rosali to join us. If anyone else is interested, let me know till the end of the month an I’ll add you to the list.

The fun starts today, I’ll bring the parcel to the post office today.

The mailing order is:

@Alexilexi

@Meggie (I hope your adress is still the same)

and back to @MaSc81

The general rules are the same as before:

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

Would you like a list of the books I put in the parcel or shall it be a suprise?

stephiesheena

MaSc81
Thank you! I’m looking very much forward to this parcel 🙂
For me, a surprise would be cool, but I’m not fussed if anyone would like an overview. In the book share I organise I started it, because I don’t want to send the same book in 5 rounds 🙂

Wishing you all a perfect Friday ☀

Meggie

MaSc81 Thanks! And yes, my address is still the same.

Stephbe

MaSc81 Hi!!! I haven’t received anything yet, it looks like I’m first on the list.

As soon as I get it, I’ll message you here 🙂

Stephbe

MaSc81 Hi! The box has arrived!!!

I’ll check the books and send them out tomorrow, Wednesday, or by Thursday at the latest 🙂

MaSc81

stephiesheena Perfect, I have a list for myself, so I don’t send the same books again.

MaSc81

I still like to see which books everyone takes out and adds.

LooonyMcJean

MaSc81

Alexilexi

MaSc81

Stephbe Great, let us know which books you take out and which you add, please.

MaryPoppins

Rosali

Rosali

MaryPoppins meanwhile this round has already started. @MaSc81 can you squeeze @MaryPoppins in somewhere?

MaSc81

Just so you know, I just changed the order as @Stephbe can bring it personally to @Rosali and after that @LooonyMcJean is next. :-)

Stephbe

MaSc81 Hi everyone! I just dropped off the book box at @Rosali 🙂

The book I took is “The Body of Death” by Elizabeth George, and I left “The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas” by John Boyne in exchange.

Hugs for everyone!
