Book Mooch

I received the book I wanted (Sea Dragon Heir, Storm Constantine) from Jester1470 on bookmooch. It's some-how made me very happy. Bookmooch owns. The whole world seems full of nice people with cool handwriting and so on.

And someone Looks jealous. I had this argument about book mooch, when someone said "why not just sell it on amazon or eBay? Funny. If I sell a book on amazon, I might get, what? A quid? That wouldn't even buy me p&p on another book. This way, (remember, books are fantastically expensive) for my book, I get a book. Pretty much all books are 5-6 quid or more. So, I get something of equal value. On top of that if I put 10 books for mooching*, and all of them are mooched, i can mooch 11 books. If on all of those books I give feedback, I get another book. 12/10. I win. Bookmooch is the coolest thing in the world. On top of that it feels pleasant and charitable, no money changes hands so you need no credit-card, pay-pal or similar (good, as I have none of those things). I'm just annoyed I took most of my books tot he charity shop now. Meh, at least they're out of my house.

*10 books offered gives you 1 point. 10 feedbacks gives you 1 point.

Sorry, general rule, say something offensive, and mind glaringly obvious, I will get annoyed. If my old site was better than my new one, that would be a pretty shoddy state of affairs, ne?

I leave that site up because it deters my parents from trying to find my new one.
