Description:

It's a GoodReads Recommendations time again! Let's follow each other on GoodReads! This swap has a few parts, so here we go ~

You must have a Good Reads account, which you'll post in the comments below WHEN you sign up. You'll go to your partners GR and add them as a friend. You may have to wait on them to accept you, so make sure you go back. If you don't allow people to friend you automatically, please make sure you approve everyone ASAP so the steps of the swap can get done in time.

After you have been approved to be their friend, you will send them TWO recommendations. The first one will be a book you have read recently (past few months or so) that you really loved and think others would love as well. Please make sure your partner hasn't already read it. Then look through your partners read and to-read list and recommend something to them based on their likes and interests that you think they might like. Simple as that! One you have been friended, and received 2 recommendations, please rate your partners.

Recommendations can be sent THROUGH GoodReads, though email or SB message are acceptable as well. To recommend through GR go to the "recommendations" link on the top of your GR page, then on the right click "Give Recommendations". Click on, or type in the title of the book you want to recommend, it'll open up and allow you to chose from your friends to send to. Another way to send is to click directly on the book you want to recommend, then over on the right (right below the links above & your folder, you can click on "recommend it" and choose from your friends that way.

Recap ~

  • Need Good Reads account
  • Friend your partners & check back if they have to accept you
  • send 2 recommendations, a recent read you loved, and another based on their likes
  • rate promptly!

As always, no rating requirements. I do ask that you sign on at least the day before partners are assigned. If someone who signs up hasn't been online all week the week before, I'll have ya sit out this round. I want to make sure everyone sends their friend requests quickly, so they can be added and finish up the rest of the swap before the deadline.

Sorry, I had to start a new account so only a couple of months worth of books on there.
