I know this is confusing since this is the first time we've done this! Hopefully if everyone likes it we'll do it every month :)

In post 2 of this thread, Tana make a list of everyone participating. You will pick a book from someone else's TBR list for them to read, and another person will pick a book from you're TBR list for you to read. Does that make sense?

For example, I am picking a book for Kari from her TBR list, and Tani is picking a book for me from my TBR list.
