Why You Should Host a Virtual Book Swap
/We’ve all given one another book recommendations during the pandemic. But why not try hosting a fun virtual book swap in which you trade books with your friends and family?
The team at Wikibuy created these virtual book swap wishlists to help you out. It’s like Secret Santa — but for books!
Here’s how it works: you gather a group and have everyone fill out their wishlists with the books that they’ve read recently and the types of books they’d like to read in the future. (There’s also a version of the wishlist for the little ones to draw pictures of the types of books they’d like to receive.)
Then, everyone gets someone else’s wishlist and tries to find a book from their personal library to match the preferences of their wishlist recipient. Finally, you mail your book to your wishlist recipient.
This is a great way to declutter your bookshelf and receive some new reading materials from the people who know you the best. Download the book swap wishlists, and give it a try!
