Details

Bring a book to swap.
When you arrive, you’ll grab a slip of paper from the jar containing a book conversation starter and place the book you brought on the table.
Once folks have arrived and settled in, we will go around to each person and they will answer their question from the paper. You can also pitch the book you brought, genre and why you love it.
Once everyone is done sharing, the book swap begins!
Everyone draws a number to determine what order they take their turn. The person with #1 chooses the first book. Person #2 can steal a book that has already been chosen, or pick a new one from the pile, and so on. When a book is stolen, that person gets to select another book. A book can only be stolen twice though; after that it stays with the person who picked it last.
By the end of the afternoon, you have a new book to take home and hopefully some new bookish friends!
