I AM MOVING!! All my books are in boxes, so I can't find any that you would request. Also if you have a Puyallup address, it is no longer good. Please PM me for the new address.








Hello

I host the OBCZ box at Terry's Berries at 4520 River Road in Tacoma. It's in the barn, near the cash regester area. Look for a milk crate with a "Free Book" sign on it.



TRADING POLICY

I am not trading at this time, unless you have a book off my wish list, or something that you are sure I will think is wonderful. I really don't need anymore books to read, and I don't have the money to be sending books out everyday. If you do have something for me, PM me and I will tell you what I have available. I may not get to check my e-mails everyday. Please give me a day or 2 to get back to your PM. I do regularly offer books to people who list books on the wish list forum or on Cliff's Wish List site. I do this when I have the time, energy and money for trading. Listing your wishes in these places is your best bet to get a book from me. Also, while I love the idea of book rings and rays. I realize that I don't like the pressure of having to read a book now. I'm much more of a "read what I feel like reading today" type person. So save each of us time and don't ask me to join. It's not like I don't have hundreds of books around here to read.

When you recieve a book from me it's yours to do whatever you want with it. Keep it, send it to another Bookcrosser, give it to a friend, or even an enemy. Wild release it. Whatever feels right for that book. I only request 3 things. That you journal the book when you get it. I do worry about my books until I get that "I got it" e-mail. That you don't sell it. As I feel that is not in the sprit of bookcrossing. (Yes I know there will be some of my books that end up getting sold, but I would like to keep that % very low) and lastly, if you decide to keep the book, I would love it if you would release another book in it's place. Just keep books moving.




All of my books are maked for bookcrossing, they are labled, stamped and written in. I pick them up from thrift stores, garage sales and freecycle, so they are not all in the best shape. But they are readable.




My wish list is long, for 2 reasons. It's the wish list of mine, my husbands, and all my children (isn't that a TV show?) And also I use it as a catch all for books that sound good so I added them there, and then I'll go looking for them. If I didn't have them all in one place I would forget.

A shorter wish list is Pregnancy, Natural Childbirth and Breastfeeding books for my classes, classic lit books for my homeschool, "Friends" (Quaker) books, and anything that is political a bit "left". My favorite fiction writer is Barbara Kingsolver
