used books web site

[sandiebeth]

ok guys!
Stick with me while i try to explain this one! . . .
For some time now i have been trying to find a web site where you leave details of a book you have read and finished with then leave the details of where you have left it for someone else to find or you leave a book with the details of the website and the finder then logs where they found it, or something along those lines!
i feel sure that this is a real site and i didn't just dream it up but i can't find any info about it at all.

I am sure AB'ers will again rise to my challange.

thank you

Why not go to www.readitswapit.co.uk there you can swap your old books with other people, the only thing it costs you is the postal price of your book, but at least you get something back, and when you've read the new one swap that too.

thank you so much, fairkatrina.
i think i will use both, one when i am feeling a little serendipidous and loving and giving and sharing LOL
the other when i am looking for a particular book and have a extra good quality book to swap.
goodness, how my life has changed because of this AB site!
thanks again

I have just recently registered with readitswapit and have just done my first swap, great way to pass on books.
