I hope she'll be very happy. I wish there was a way to give a copy to everybody though, there's so many of us.

I'll fetch mine tomorrow at the library, but when I've received My Life on the Road and read it, I'm free to send it to anyone.

I use paperbackswap too and its great.

There is a forum and a thread on there for free books - these are ones that don't qualify for trading on the PBS site - but you could sign up there and ask.

It is a low cost option. :)

Annette, The Color Purple is most likely also accessible in libraries. Btw, I'm still waiting for My Life on the Road.

Thanks, one of the group members already promised to send me the Copy of The Color Purple .
After receiving the copy, i would start reading it .
As for My life in the Road, i have never come across that Title in the local Library.

That is due to the release date. It was published last year in autumn, and isn't translated yet.

This is such an amazing idea! Loving the references to Travelling Pants too!

I'm still yet to read My Life on the Road, and struggling to get a copy. Does anyone in the UK have a copy they wouldn't mind passing on? I'd be willing to pay postage and pass on afterwards if anyone else is still looking to get their hands on a copy...

Jess, I'd love to have My Life on the Road after you've done reading. I hope you get your hands on it soon. Thanks!

In the interest of organization, we've decided to limit Pay It Forward threads to one dedicated to each book. Please post any requests or offers in the threads for each book! We hope this will help more people get copies of the books each month by making the communication more manageable. Thanks :)
