Bookish Quotes
"I advised you to dispose of your books, and advise it still. Be sure to do it, it will give you peace of mind.
But at the same time be careful not to become narrow-minded, or afraid of reading what is well written, quite the contrary, such writings are a source of comfort in life."

The books will come to you in an padded envelope most likely. You will select the books you want and reveal the ones you took. Then message the next person in line and they will provide you with their address and you can ship them via media mail. Hope this helps!

Sent a note to BookWormInUsAll to obtain the mailing address. Deciding which to keep, which to send on and which to add.

Sent a note to BookWormInUsAll to obtain the mailing address. Replied to your PM, and got a "CATCH" of one of your books I released in an LFL this past February. You may already know this if you receive BC Release Alerts. ; ) Exciting, nonetheless, as I RARELY receive Journal Entries of LFL Releases...OUR lucky day!!! ; ) My Little Island (Reading Rainbow, 1987) by Frane Lessac http://www.bookcrossing.com/---/14388812
|
|

I was excited to see the journal entry. Most of the books we drop off a our LFLs are not journaled, but we've seen kiddos with the books.
I put in a fourth paperback for you. :) Tracking 9549010589607244113381

Does anyone in this list read French? I might PM you to offer a book or two..... What a kind offer, freezone. ; ) I can still say a few phrases in French, but do not read it with understanding. I do have two little nieces (1st and 2nd grade) who are learning French at their school this year though. ; ) I just received this Surprise Paperback Bookbox, and since love2cook has asked to be skipped, you are next in line. Off to PM you for your address, and make Journal Entries for the books that arrived. I will delay this week's Post Office run until I hear from you, so I can get this sent out this week.

Am hoping to now get this mailed out on Monday 7/18 when I'll be out & about for two doctor appts. ; )

Sounds good...thanks for the update

Tuesday, but because of starting a job on Wednesday, haven't really dealt with the box. Will make my pick (Death of a Colonial by Bruce Alexander), and contact the next person on the list for address.
Thank you freezone for sending it to me; will get it out as soon as reasonably possible. Will post again after mailing it off.

I didn’t receive my bookplates yet, so I hope I do by the time I get the books. How do I know who to send the books to?
|
|
|
Once your turn is up, someone will message you requesting your address to send the books to. Once you receive the books and make your selection(s) announce them here but don't say which books you're adding. Then you will message the next person on the list asking for their address and send the books that way.
Feel free to message me if you need to
