The TPF Book Exchange Programme

Great idea! Unfortunately I've got only Dutch books

maybe someone Dutch or learning Dutch will want them (?).

Great idea Claire! I just donated so many books to the library but I still have some hanging around. I'll try to get organized to post them tomorrow. One suggestion I have is to make a note if the books are coming from a smoking -vs- non-smoking home. I bought books on eBay once that must've come from a chain smoker because they reeked. I'm not normally sensitive to cigarette smoke but these were awful - I couldn't even read them.

Thanks for organizing this!

Carries that's a really good idea

All mine are non smoking

I don't know if pets would be a problem for people with allergies (mine are no pets too) but if you have any questions about any of the books offered please feel free to post your questions

what a fun idea

I just love reading. I just started the Bartimaeus Trilogy during my vacation. I'll have a look later what books I could offer

 

[Sternchen]

I absolutely LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE this idea!!!!!!!!

I've got a ton of books that haven't sold on Amazon that I'd like to trade / get rid of!

 

[Sternchen]

Going to make my book list now! I've got English and German language books

VERY cool idea! I'd rather books go to awesome TPFers than my miserable co-workers!

Hmmm, shipping...I'm not sure. Should we all agree and use Media Mail as a default shipping method? Media Mail is relatively quick (in my experience with both USPS and the German Postal Service) and inexpensive!

This is such a great idea! Thank you so much for organizing this for all of us tPF bookworms!

Media Mail sounds perfect for those in the US I've had a look but sadly there isn't a service like that for the UK

 

[Sternchen]

There's no book / magazine service? That's strange!
