Recycling this BCID as the book it previously belonged to has dropped to bits & gone to the Great Library in the Sky ;o)




Journal Entry 2 by wingPlum-crazywing at Brighouse, West Yorkshire United Kingdom on Tuesday, January 13, 2015
This is a small bookbox containing crime & thriller books. No "cosy" type mysteries please there's another bookbox starting for those!

There's five rules:

1. There must be a minimum of 4 books in it. You can take out as many as you like but you MUST send on at least 4. More is fine as long as....

2....the package weighs under 2KG. This is is just to keep costs down. Postage is currently be £2.80 second class for up to 2KG - if it's heavier, well thats up to you, you'll be paying the postage after all!!

3 Please journal the date the bookbox is received (BCID will be in the box - please leave for next person!) & sent on & of course, journal any books you remove.

4 As a courtesy to other readers please only put in books that are in a decent condition.

5 All the books currently in the box must be by different authors to ensure a variety of choice. So for example, you could take out a book by Ian Rankin & put another Ian Rankin in as there would still be only one in the box....hope that makes sense!

This book box has arrived with me - and a quick glance seems to reveal that only one of the original books is still there! Obviously, popular choices.

A couple of books I'd kept in mind to add to this have proved too big for the box, so I'll have to have a check through my Availables bookcase and perhaps find some which have been on available for too long! A job for tonight I feel when I'm home and can go through the piles at leisure. I may also try repacking the box in various ways to add those I'd intended to put in - who knows.

Journal Entry 48 by Flutterbies9 at Meare, Somerset United Kingdom on Saturday, March 5, 2016
This book box has now arrived with me - and a quick glance seems to reveal that not one of the original books is still there! Again, obviously popular choices.

I've kept some books in mind to add to this but I'm having trouble choosing which to take out and what to put in! Pm'd the next in line, so should be on it way again soon.

Journal Entry 49 by Flutterbies9 at Meare, Somerset United Kingdom on Tuesday, March 8, 2016
OK, once again, I guess I've tried to put too much in. I'd weighed it all out and it came to 1994gms but when I taped the address label and the sides up it was 2006gms. Arrgh, I did not use that much tape and the address label is not that heavy so how come when it is all weighed in bits it is one weight, but when parcelled up, it is even more .... frustration. I had to unwrap the parcel and remove a book I had meant to go out. Sorry for the delay but on its way again to the Post Office.

Should be with you fairly soon pam99.

Thanks again plum-crazy for sending this book box around again. Good and obviously popular choices as this regularly cycles every book in the box.

Journal Entry 51 by BethanyGordon at Leven, Scotland United Kingdom on Wednesday, March 23, 2016
Arrived this morning. There's two books that I want but I only have one to put in, so you may have to bear with me while I read a book to put in (I know there only has to be four books, but I'd like to put in as many as I take out).
