Love for Bookshop Email swap

I'm a little late in posting this, as today is Book Lovers Day, but I hope you'll forgive me! :)

I LOVE books, and I love libraries and all things book related. And book stores - chains or independent, new or used - are my ultimate playground! :) Are you with me? Then let's share our thoughts and expereinces.

In an EMAIL (not swap-bot PM), tell your partner about the book stores you visit most often. Is it a chain store, or is it independent? How did you discover it? How often do you visit the store? What has been your "best find" so far?

If you enjoy going to large chain book stores (such as Barnes & Noble in the USA), you can talk about that, too. Maybe tell you partner where you enjoy looking and your best finds there, as well.
Also, list the title and author of the book you are currently reading or have just finished* in the comments section below. This **IS a requirement of the swap, and needs to be listed BEFORE sign up ends, or I will remove you from the swap.

Email should be at least a paragraph long - this doesn't have to be an essay, but you should tell your partner some details. Answer the questions above, or just use them for guidance. Bonus if you have a photo of the store or a website, you can include that as well.

Requirement Recap EMAIL to your partner about your favorite book store (new or used - no online stores for this swap, sorry).

LIST the book you just finished or are currently reading in comments below.

SEND the EMAIL on time and RATE your partner.

OPTIONAL - include a photo of your favorite book store and/or a link to their website.

You will have ONE partner and the swap is INTERNATIONAL as book lovers are world wide. :) This is NOT a ratings booster swap, but new swappers are welcome to join. I will, of course, angel this swap if you are flaked on, once you have made contact with your partner and rated them appropriately, and then contacted me. I DO check profiles and I WILL BE LOOKING FOR INFO ABOUT BOOKS ON YOUR PROFILE. Book lovers do tend to have favorite books and authors, and usually comment on that on their profile. This swap centers on books and reading, so I want to be sure there are like minded people joining in. :)

I'm hoping this is a fun swap for book lovers

You will have ONE WEEK from sign up to send by. You can get this ready ahead of time, save as a draft, and then just add your partner's email address when partners are assigned.

Even though this is "just an email swap" remember that you DO NEED TO RATE your partner, and you CAN BE RATED DOWN if you don't send on time or meet the guidelines.

If you have any questions, Please send me a PM as I will probably miss comments left below.
