It’s Contest Time! Free BookMooch Credits!
It is Bloggy Giveaway Time again already! If you are here for the giveaway – welcome! Please take a peek around my blog. I’m a conservative, born-again Christian, wife and mother of 3 so far. Here on my blog you’ll find a lot of book reviews – mainly of interest to Christians, homeschoolers and children, parenting insights, cute pictures of my children etc. I also host a giveaway here at least once a month, I’d host weekly if I had prize sponsors. Contact me – jennifer at quiverfullfamily dot com if you’d like to sponsor a giveaway here. I’d love to meet you, so feel free to leave me a comment as you browse.
Now for the giveaway!
I am giving away 4 free BookMooch credits! With 4 credits you can request 4 used books of your choice to be sent to you by mail for free domestically, or 2 used books internationally! The BookMooch database has many, many books to choose from. My inventory is here if you’d like to take a peek!
So – what is BookMooch, and how does it work? Members add books to their inventories that they are willing to send to others (each book added earns 0.1 points). Members with points can then request books that are inventoried and available (1 point per book domestically, 2 points per book internationally). The member who is ‘mooched’ from receives 1 point domestically and 3 points internationally (BM throws in an extra point to cover shipping). The member with the requested book sends it in the mail, no money every exchanges hands. When the requesting member receives the book they mark it received (0.1 points for this), and leaves feedback. Voila! Book trading by mail!
I have received 373 books, and sent out 163 – yes I am a book, and BookMooch addict! And remember – BookMooch is an international book trading service! Many trading sites are country specific, so this is a bonus! Members can choose to send within their own country only, internationally, or ‘ask first’ which means they are contacted by international members and asked if they will send specific books internationally. There’s much more to learn – wishlists, deals, charities etc. but you’ll need to join up to learn about all of the features.
I will transfer the BookMooch points into your BookMooch account after you win. No need to sign up for an account in advance if you don’t already have one, but this is such a fun service that you may feel compelled to join! Note: I don’t receive any incentives or monetary reward if you sign up, I’m just a happy user!

Oh, I would love to win this! I’m out of points, and have had to pass up wishlisted books.
Right now, I think that The Milk Book would be the first one I’d request.

I just joined Bookmooch a few days ago (I’ve been a member of other trading sites for awhile though). I would love to have some credits to use because I already addes so many books to my wishlist. I would love to read Snow Crash but any on my list would make me happy!

I’ve been meaning to get my books on Book Mooch for awhile now; maybe this will be my motivation (time permitting anyway…). One that I’d like to mooch (and that had one copy available at least at the time of this post) is: A Short History of Tractors in Ukrainian by Marina Lewycka. Thanks for holding the contest!
The only book I can think of that I’ve been meaning to read is Trace Adkins’ A Personal Stand, but they don’t have a copy right now. Meanwhile, my mind is consumed by being pregnant, and thankfully, there are lots of choices in that department. Thanks for the giveaway! Stop by our blog for a chance to win a Country Home magazine subscription.
I never knew internationals could join bookmooch! That’s awesome! I’d love to read Shannon Hale’s Princess Academy! Thanks!
I’d like a copy of Anne of Green Gables.
I love Bookmooch-I’d love to read The House at Riverton!! Thanks!

Hi there! I’m one of them happy BookMoochers, my BM ID is dova113 and you may find me here: http://www.bookmooch.com/m/bio/dova113.
There are SO many books on BookMooch to choose from… but right now I’m trying to get books off my wishlist, so as all my mooches are international, I’ll probably mooch the two Star Trek books (‘Dark Passions’ Books 1&2 by Susan Wright) that have been sitting there forever, unless something new pops up.
I’m a member of several other international book-swapping sites (see my BM bio, if you’re interested), but none of them compares to BookMooch in the least. If you’re just like me a person from a non-English speaking country where books in foreign languages are almost unavailable and very expensive, then Bookmooch is just the right thing for you, trust me.
Hm… I think I gave you my desired books, but you don’t have my BM ID and address
So, I’m Aga (agatatera) and my address is agatatera@yahoo.co.uk. And I’m the same person as the one who write the first 2 comments

There are SO many books on Bookmooch I want, that it’s quite hard to choose, but as I try to mooch only books from my wishlist right now, I think I’ll be mooching the ‘Star Trek: Dark Passions’ Books 1&2 by Susan Wright (all my mooches are international), unless something else pops up.
As I’m from a small non-English speaking country, where books in foreign languages are quite rare and expensive, BookMooch is my dream come true.
I would LOVE anything by Joel Salatin. I just signed up for Book Mooch. I LOVE these types of book swap programs. Thanks for sharing one I didn’t know about!

I would get Eleven on Top by Janet Evanovich! Thank you for the giveaway!
There are currently no copies in stock, but I would like to keep an eye out for the Ultimate Tea Diet for my Mom. She wants the book, but doesn’t have room for extras in her budget.
And homeschool curriculum supplement books.

I saw one called “The Red Tent” and it looked really good. I searched through most mooched titles. I had never heard of this site before. Thanks for sharing!
I subscribe too!
I would choose the Audio CD
Jennifer Weiner’s Goodnight Nobody
I’d fill in some of my missing Harry Potter books. I don’t have the full set yet. Thanks.
I have never heard of Bookmooch but I will definitely join. The book I would get is Joy School by Elizabeth Berg.
Thanks so much for including internationals! I would love any of Rachael Ray’s books as they are rare here – there is one on there.
nellbes last blog post..Great Deal from a blog I love to read….
I love bookmooch, they are awesome! I’m trying to get Lyra’s Oxford, but I always seem to miss it when it is listed. One of these days. My girls are really into the American girl books, so I’d probably use my credits for some of those.
Ginnys last blog post..Maiden America ~ No Slip Hair Clips Review
I would like to have The Brethern by Beverly Lewis
I’m International: this would be so awesome! I have little access to English books. This would be a great way to bless my children since we have no access to a library!!!!
I would probably get my son’s help to select one of the Berenstain Bear’s books (I see there are alot; we might get The Berenstain Bears Save Christmas) and maybe a Madeline book. I would like “Basic Montessori” but there are no copies available.

I would get the “Last Lecture” by Randy Pausch. I’m sure it’s an incredible read, just like “Tuesdays with Morrie”.
Thanks!!!
I would love “New Moon”, “Eclipse” and “Breaking Dawn” which are the books in the twilight series. Thanks!
I would like The Prosecution: A Legal Thriller by Dudley W. Buffa. Thanks for the giveaway.

This is such a neat service! I’d never heard of it. I would pick Bare Bones by Kathy Reichs. Thanks

I would like to get some Stephen Cosgrove books for my daughter.
I would get Lover Beware by Christine Feehan. Thanks for the contest!
We are obsessive BookMoochers. Right now I think the one title I most want of all would be either The Aldon Amos Big Book of Handspinning or Jan Brett’s Hedgie Blasts Off, but my wishlist is almost 550 titles long, so it’s hard to say. Thanks for the contest.
I would pick a HP Lovecraft book for DH – there’s a couple he’s had his eye on, so one of them (if I win, and give him this, he won’t say anything to the pile of books I’ll bring home from the next half price sale on books at our local St Vincent’s thrift store!
