Description:

People usually say the book was WAY better than the movie. For this swap, send one partner a book (preferably in paperback edition to save on international postage costs) that has been made into a film. The film can be TV, theater or straight to DVD. Include a note telling your partner when the film version came out and who starred in it.

Optional addition: If you happened to have both read the book and seen the film, include your thoughts on the two versions.

To participate: a 4.8 or higher rating and membership in Book Lovers United.

will all books sent be in English?

I can fluently read both English and German, so both of those languages would be fine for me.

Check with your partner on languages.

What if your partner says they don't fluently read english once you are given your partner? I've come across that with two of my partners so far, and I would have an impossible time trying to find books of other languages around here.... Just a thought ^^

I only read in English, and if it wouldn't be too much trouble I have a large library, can you check my list (linked in profile) against the book you want to send (probably before you buy it), just in case I have it already. Thanks so much! This will be super fun! I already know what book I want to send to my partner (if its compatible).

Do they have to be new books or can they be (gently) used?

Sasy 04/ 9/2009 #

I'm fluent in both English and German. :)

A package was mailed out to my partner today. I think you'll have fun with it -- at least I hope so. :)
