Or, put them on your wish list at Paperbackswap.com (PBS)! What? You don't have a PBS account? You are missing out! It's a great site for swapping books and the only cost is the media mailing rate, around $2 for an average-sized book. Go sign up and then post any 10 books you have lying around your house that you're willing to part with, or pick some up for a quarter at the thrift store, or for free at the swap shelf at the library. When you list ten books you're willing to mail to someone else, you get two free credits to order new-to-you books for FREE! Then, for each book you mail out, you get a credit for another one. It can take a while for books to get here, but when they do, it's such a treat! Check out PBS for links to CD and DVD swap sites too, and Bookmooch.com is a similar site you might also like.

Paperback Swap is AWESOME!!!!!! And the book recommendations are really good. I especially like the Military Brats one even though it is not "beach reading". The Burana book is good for spouses who feel a little bit outside of the mainstream. Good post!
