Book Trading

What's your favorite book trading site and why?

Ted and I are trying to not grow our library, but I still want to read, and I'm horrible w/ libraries. I think I might have an account on bookmooch, will have to investigate that.

I like paperbackswap.com. Great selection, also you can transfer credits between that and swapacd.com. So, you can turn a book into a CD! Great for me because I have a huge book collection but almost never buy new CDs.

I've used bookmooch quite sucessfully to parlay my existing library into a library for my kid. Moochers tend to be friendly and courteous. I also know people who love paperbackbookswap.

I had a lot of fun with Bookcrossing.com

Which direction(s) are you growing your library in? I have some books to get rid of, some (most, at this point?) of them academic, and could send you a list -- if you want any of them, I'll ship them book-rate with a request to *not* return the favor. :) (Am culling my library down to, hopefully, a single bookcase.)

I want a Kindle 2 :) The thought of a complete library with me at all times just makes me shiver and go "Squeeee!"
