That's what I was doing - waiting for a second person to list their books OR until we went over onto the next page :)

Also, because the Mystery Book Swap was successful, we thought it might be fun to do it again.
Mystery Book Swap
1. Bring along one book to the venue to give away – preferably a new book or a book in excellent condition.
2. Wrap the book in whatever paper you have at home.
3. Place a tag on the wrapping with the description of the genre.
4. Each participants name will be placed in a hat, and when your name is drawn, you can select a mystery book from the pile.
Join us for a great few hours chatting books (among other things!)
