Swapping a book will cost 5 participation points for generating a list I have given you 5 participation points :)

BW if she has already read a book on her list can she request a trade without using points?

Dree, let us know if you have questions about points. Members earn points by reading and discussing books and by answering our fast points question each week (see footnotes folder). You get 3 for reading and discussing each BOTM, 2 for reading a book on your random list, 1 for answering weekly question. Then 10 for seasonal reads and varying points for challenges

Hi Jen, before we moved to PPs everyone got 2 free swaps, as Dree joined after the PPs were implemented I am subjecting her to the new rules hence giving her 5 points for starting a list so she can swap straightaway if she wishes :)

Dree if you have read all of these books let me know and I will let you swap 1 for free.

The only way to get a new book without using PPs is to read one from your list and then I will generate you a new one, or if a book is not available in a language you can read you can swap it.

Any questions let me know.

Thank you! I have actually not read any of these books, so I am good to go. I am a little confused by the whole points thing, but I will figure it out.

I have finished and reviewed Virgin Soil (my first Turgenev!).

Please, may I have another?

Done :)

I have read and reviewed a Wish List book! And I loved it. The Radiant Way by Margaret Drabble.

I know there are just about 20 days left this year, but could I have another book? On the off chance I get a short one and can squeeze it in :)
