We're back for the 13th Annual Best Of Swap!
If you wish you can check previous Best Ofs:
2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017
We're starting Jan 10th as usual.
I'm sure you all know the rules but here they are as stated last year:
the rules:
- the main thing is to offer one of three best books you've read last year ('till 31st Dec) which means
TBRs!
- no genre restriction!
- self revealing and stealing your own book as a tactic move is not allowed.
- providing a list with few titles so that player who ends with it can pick one of those is not allowed.
- 2(3)fers are OK if they are part of series or more/less sequel (and if that one story is the best thing you've read this year and has been told in more than one book) but if they are unrelated please restrain yourself from offering them.
- the swap is over when someone reveals the last unrevealed book.
- it's international (be prepared to ship overseas!) swap with 12 hours rule.
- enjoy!
- a reminder about formats: :p If you read your favourite book in some format other than paper copy, that's fine. Just don't assume that everyone has or uses an e-reader. If you have the paper copy to offer up, grand! If you don't and you'd have to buy a copy of the book to pass along, you may luck out and the winner will prefer an e-copy, too. Just be sure to communicate with each other to figure it out.

ps, my darlings: I'm definitely hoping someone will volunteer to help co-host this bash. I'm in the pacific time zone, so someone who will be awake earlier in the day than me is always useful so the game doesn't get held up while I'm asleep.
