I don't think most of US, the avid readers of the world, realize how little the majority of the population cares about reading real books these days. The world has truly been dumbed down.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-26636777763148607792013-03-06T02:40:28.548-06:002013-03-06T02:40:28.548-06:00Oh I didn't realize there could be copies left...Oh I didn't realize there could be copies left over. If so, sending it to someone who requested it in exchange for another book would be something I approve. I just hated the thought of someone not giving it a chance.Susan Sandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05589508071251558063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-35762781079252173102013-03-05T20:22:46.368-06:002013-03-05T20:22:46.368-06:00I wonder, susan, if the person listing it is the s...I wonder, susan, if the person listing it is the same one who received it to give away. Maybe there was a copy left over after the night and he/she passed it on this way? Still a shame, but at least it finally got to someone (you) who really wanted it.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-85535499998675535862013-03-01T02:34:00.032-06:002013-03-01T02:34:00.032-06:00I am a member of paperback.com.

I was surprised to receive an obviously brand new book, and then saw the info on the back explaining that it was a WBN copy. The good news is that paperbackswap just runs on credits for more books, but it hurt me Susan Sandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05589508071251558063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-5886246836593349452013-02-27T14:45:35.966-06:002013-02-27T14:45:35.966-06:00You do have to wonder how many were actually read,...You do have to wonder how many were actually read, Kayo. I suppose that possibility comes with the territory when we focus on "non-readers" this way, though.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38656633.post-18391904818493781962013-02-27T06:38:17.155-06:002013-02-27T06:38:17.155-06:00I recently got my confirmation for this years Worl...I recently got my confirmation for this years Worldbooknight. I am so excited about doing this a second time. I will be giving them away in the same spot as last year(I work at a feed elevator in a small town). I do wonder how many of the books I gave out last year were read. <br />Kayonoreply@blogger.com
