corycatelyn @kricheal I didn't think about doing it on here...that's pretty smart 😉 5y

LibrarianRyan Not trying to be a downer, but most of these from facebook were proven to be a type of pyramid scheme. I would want to know exactly how it works. This does not sound like a typical swap. The reason I ask this is MATH. if you only give one book, how can you expect multiple in return unless someone is getting none?

There just needs to be a lot more information on how this would work. 5y

kricheal @LibrarianRyan Even if you bought a book, and then received a book. I don't see the downside in that- it's a swap. It's fun. It's also not that serious. I have the info, which I received from my cousin who is also on litsy, she received from a person she worked with. You could email me, I could tell you how it works. I can't put the info on here as it contains private addresses. If no one does it that's ok too. It looks like fun. 5y

kricheal Anyone interested can email me for information kristenricheal@gmail.com They're no strings attached even if you're just curious to find out how it works. Let's do something #positive and cut out all the negativity! 5y

The Count of Monte Cristo | Alexander Dumas

Just got my first book in the #savetheculture book exchange! I don't know who sent this, but I love The Count of Monte Cristo and it's been many years since I read it!

Didn't make it to the post office as planned yesterday, but now the package is on its way and due to arrive Tuesday the 6th. Hoping my match loves the items I chose...I am getting nervous and excited now that there is no turning back.😝🎁🎉 Bottom package is for #secretsantagoespostal. The top is for a #savetheculture book exchange.

The Good Nurse: A True Story of Medicine, Madness, and Murder | Charles Graeber

Received this during a #bookexchange #savetheculture event that took place among some friends on Facebook. Definitely seems like an interesting read.

Life of Pi | Yann Martel

I forgot to document today's #BookMail. I received this one through a #SaveTheCulture campaign on Facebook, so I don't know the sender personally; she's a friend of a Facebook friend. And, amazingly enough, she managed to send me a book that I neither own, nor have I already read.
