Ya’ll, I’ve found a website that utilizes the best idea ever — and it may be the worst possible thing for my already-packed-and-now-weighting-down-the-floor-hazardously bookshelves. All of you bookish readers are going to LOVE it!
A friend was talking about it on Facebook. I’m like: what, a book swap WEBSITE??????? Where you swap books for free (just paying postage)? Sign me up! (I did sign up, and someone’s already requested a book I posted. That means another book credit for me! Woohoo!)
It’s PaperbackSwap.com. 
Here’s how it works: you post books you want to trade, a person requests one, you pay basic media mail postage to send them the book, you get a book credit on your account. You can then use this credit to request a book from someone else on the site. For free. The other person pays the postage. Awesome, yes?
There’s all kinds of extras, like wishlists, reviews, and favorite genre features. I don’t even know what else. I’m too excitedly browsing the books available and plotting how to fit another bookshelf in my bedroom to stop and figure out all the extra features.
I hope you enjoy expanding your TBR stack with this website! Happy Friday!
Have you ever participated in a book swap? What is your go-to website for used books?
Okkkaaayyy…..my poor bookshelf is going to hate you for posting this! I am totally going to go check it out!
I hope you do check it out! I’ve had fun figuring the website out. You can even view new books posted today by genre!
Awesomeness!!!
So much win! I’ll definitely be checking this out stat!
Yay! I hope you find some of your wishlist there.
I’ve been active on paperbackswap.com for several years! I like that they go in order of who requested a book so it’s very fair. Another one I like is bookmooch.com – they have a first come, first served system, but it’s been a great place for me to get books from Harlequin’s Love Inspired line, and I tend to get more books requested from me there so I have more points/credits to work with. You also get one tenth of a point for each book you list, so if you list ten books you get to request one free!
