Silent Book Club WHITE ELEPHANT @ Graduate Hotel (UDistrict)

HOLIDAY BOOK EXCHANGE 2025!

To participate:
1. Gift wrap at home some book that you determine will bring joy and happiness to someone (no trash or gag items please)
2. Bring it along and throw it in a pile at the meetup
3. (As determined randomly) Pick out a different book also dropped off here by another reader.
White Elephant rules apply! Anticipate legalized book theft! But if someone steals your treasure(?), you get to pick out another one!! What will you give away!? What will you bring home???

Please note, you can still attend even if you do not want to participate in the exchange
