Book Swap #21
You're invited to our next book swap!
Theme: Remedy or Poison
The book that either saved your mind a little, or wrecked it a little. Every reader has a book that sat close to their mental health at some point, whether it helped carry the weight or added to it.
Bring a book that's been your remedy or your poison. It could be:
Your remedy: the book that helped you when things were heavy, the one that talked you down, the comfort read that got you through something
Your poison: the one that pulled you under with it, that you couldn't put down even as it wrecked you a little, the beautiful spiral
Both at once: the book that hurt to read but you needed to read it anyway, the story that healed by first breaking something open
Unclear which one it was: you finished it and still don't know if it helped or harmed bring that one too
Any kind counts. Leave with one you haven't read yet.
FICTION ONLY.
This swap is part of Swapping Stories.
🎟 Free entry
What to bring
1 wrapped fiction book for the main swap, either your remedy or your poison
You're welcome to bring additional books you'd like to declutter or casually swap
You may also swap with books available at the event, subject to availability
Come for the books, the conversation and leave with something new both on your bookshelf and maybe on your contacts.
Please only book if you're sure you can make it. Heaps of planning goes into these events and we do cap numbers to fit the space so when spots go unused, other readers miss out. If your plans change, just let us know ASAP so we can offer your ticket to someone else!
