    Default Book swap on the org?

    Would it be possible to start a book swap area on the org and would there be any interest in it?

    Thumbs up Autobiographies

    I read autobiographies mainly so would be happy to swap like for like. Not keen on biographies as they feel kind of fake if that makes sense.

    I don't have loads.......but I don't tend to reread, so I'd be happy to swap.........authors are Michael Connolly, John Connolly, Linda Fairstein, Thomas Harris, Mo Hayder, Quintin Jardine, John Grisham, Ian Rankin, Michael Palmer etc and a few books on the Da Vinci code lines (but not by Dan Brown).

    Worth just listing titles and authors, and PMing interest in books you'd like to posters?

    Thought about it in the past.......but no guarantee of ever getting one for yourself, especially up here........and while I don't like to reread..........I will if I have nothing else.

    I am not going to vote because I live too far away to make use of it. But I encourage the Caithness orgers in this venture.

    There's nowt to stop you. The spirit of sharing in reading the same book, as well as options to discuss it online.
