BOOKS ONLINE

Hey Ladies,
Saw this in Oprah and thought I'd share...

bookmooch.com - it's a book exchange based on points, only pay for postage.
paperbackswap.com - trade books here too - pay for postage online.
bookswim.com  - lets you organize a pool of titles and ships them monthly.
betterworld.com - donates proceeds to literacy. 

See you soon.

Well, hellooooo!!!

YAY!  We have our own blog.  We have ARRIVED!!  What a great way for those of us (and by us, I mean me!) whose attendance is sporatic (at best) to keep in touch.  Thanks, Kris, for getting us all set up.  Next time I post, I promise to have something more insightful to share ... maybe!

~Maria

We're up and running!

And everyone can now contribute!!

I made a separate email address and password just for 10MinuteBookClub.  I will email it to everyone, and we can get started!

To post on the blog:

go to www.blogger.com

our sign in name is :  10minbookclub

and I will email you our password.

After you post something, you will need to sign your name to it if you want to be identified; otherwise, it will look like just a general post.

Paperback Swap

this is the website my mom sent me for the book swap. i was talking about it wednesday night. you start with a list of 10 books (could be paperback or hardback) that you are wanting to swap. this gives you 2 credits. then you use your credits to get books from other people. also, after you've sent a book, you get another credit. i think you can search online before you join to see what kinds of things they have. it might be a great way to get books for really cheap b/c all you pay for is the shipping. they even have a tool where you can pay for the shipping and make a label and book cover at home and don't have to go to the post office. :)

here is the website: www.paperbackswap.com
