Chick Lit Bookbox
7 journalers for this copy...
I'm starting a chick-lit bookbox. I'm anticipating approximately 15 books to start the box. The books included will be in the womens fiction genre, but NOT including cheesy romance books (aka harlequins, etc). Due to high postage rates, I am limiting this to US only (I'm sorry!). The rules are basic and simple:
1. Make three journal entries: when you receive the box, when you have decided what you will take out and replace, and the last one when you send it to the next person in line (please try to include the delivery confirmation)
2. Don't keep the box for more than 4 weeks
3. Put in an equal or greater number of books that you take out
4. Please only put womens fiction in the box (if you are in question of what that is, please ask me)
5. If the box is in bad shape, please replace the box before sending it on.
Here is the link to original post in the forums for the bookbox.
