Oooh... I didn't think of Watership Down! And I JUST bought a Thursday Next book... it's a series?????!!! I had no idea... I haven't even read it yet! It just looked so fun. Anyone interested in it, Barnes and Noble has what I imagine must be the first in their bargain book section. :) I think about $4.

Yes, at first I said "three" and I simply couldn't DO it. :)

Wheres is everyone? This is an awesome swap! Of course, I don't mind swapping with Holly-love her choices.

The first Thursday Next book is The Eyre Affair so definitely start there. While it's good, the series really picks up in the later books.

this is kind of the cutest swap ever. :)

I am probably going to be running behind on this one... but maybe not. I do read pretty fast! I just got my books ordered today and am really looking forward to reading them. :)

Leisha, you're gonna love your little box.... :) This was so much fun to put together; I hope this swap will be a regular occurrence, because I'd for sure participate every two months or so... I could've done almost any book on the lists above and had a great time with it.

Holly, I'm dying to know WHICH book you picked! Or at least which author... You have very carefully not said which you're reading currently..... ;P

No but I AM loving the one I chose! ;)

Well, masterbard, my initial postage to South Korea was going to be $43 for a package worth MUCH less... so it's back to the drawing board! But I'm getting there... :)
