Description:

The task is to read a book and comment it. You can write it on a extra page or into the book itself.

I know some people may hate it to write into a book, because they prefer it to keep it clean and neat. ( I am one of those.) But for this Swap it is easier to write on the free space of a books side.

What kind of comments you write is your choice. Mark passages you like most or which make you think about yourself. Passages you don't like. Comment on characters, situations, the author. What ever you like.

Please write clear and neat so that your Swap-Partner has the chance to read the book too and go through your thoughts and comments.

If you had fun with the book and the comments maybe you can send it back and discuss your comments. But that is optional.

It is important to keep the comments as personal as possible. The comments should display your personal opinion.

Which kind of book you choose is senders choice. It is okay to go to your Swap-Partners profile to have a look which kind of books he likes or not, but it is not requested.

The Rules: No flakers please. If you know that you can not read fast enough, or hate reading at all, please don't sign up. No users under a rating of 4.5. If you are and want to sign up please PM me I do not bite. :) Newbies are welcome with a well filled out profile. I check profiles and reserve the right to ban suspicious users.

If you are from the US or Europe and don't want to make this Swap International have a look here and here

Have fun!

How much writing do you want us to comment about the book? A page long or a paragraph or two? Or it doesn't matter how much we write about the book?

iggygirl: yes of course, that would be fine

solarts: of course the best would be a lot of comments as long as possible, but it is also fine if you make short comments. I am going to comment nearly on every page some line or words or sayings. The only thing is you shouldn't comment the book as a whole, but outtakes, passages, quotes,... It shouldn't end as a bookreview.

I hope I could help you two. :)
