The Great Paperback Swap

[dotinthesky]

I'm participating in the Great Paperback Swap. You mail a paperback and get thirty six sent back to you! It's a kind of pyramid scheme, involving six friends and names on lists.

I just received my first paperback: Snow Falling on Cedars, by David Guterson. Sadly, I don't know who mailed it to me! It was mailed here in the UK.

Has anyone ever participated in the Great Paperback Swap before? If you did, how did it go?

Peter Snow was once in a minor plane crash into a cedar forest. So far so "life imitating art". But this was also the same forest that inspired the book title.

I'm trying to get shot of my paperbacks....De Niro in 'Cape Fear' : "Ah already read 'em".

i'm excited for this to work, but i get the feeling that at least two of the six i sent it to have already forgotten and crapped out on it. as for me, i'm sending off my book within the next three days; this weekend was a busy one and so was this week. bleh.
get anything else yet?

I didn't even know about "the great paperback swap", but reading about it makes me wish it would exist something like that on Spain. :(

So, you got Guterson book... and what did you sent?
