So guys have you heard of it?? Has any one else joined??

I think its a fabulous concept and a great way of sharing the joy of reading with the masses!!!

If you want to know what I am talking about go here

A book is not only a friend, it makes friends for you. When you have possessed a book with mind and spirit, you are enriched. But when you pass it on you are enriched threefold.
Henry Miller
The Books In My Life (1969)

I would love to participate but giving away a book of mine is like taking off a finger. I could never part with my books Smile

does it include scientific books and boring school books? (well boring for me but might be of interest or need to others..). i wouldn't mind giving them away. i have so many books that i usually donate to charity although i find them messed up with the next day in the same place Exclamation

where can i find in which regions they do it?

Wow, that's a really great idea! It's a shame the only books I have are for my six year old (that I would be willing to part with), Can't get rid of my ElfQuest series.... never will! Laughing
