Hit, Flip, and Roll

Books, books, books; I can never read enough books. If there was an extra hour in the day, I'd use it to read. The problem with my reading pattern is that I struggle to let go of books, which means my bookshelves are always more than bulging. However, I may have found an answer!

HitFlip offer a used book swap service, which you can use to swap books you've read (or didn't like) with other people. They've got a fairly decent selection of books on offer, and charge 79p for each swap. Thought that Crime & Punishment was a bit wordy? Swap it for a Mr. Men book! Thought Haunted was a bit gory? Swap it for a Peter Farrelly! The possibilities are endless. There's a bunch of books I didn't particularly like on my shelves, but now I know there's a place they can go; and best of all, I'll get a book I like more back in return! Sounds like win-win to me.

Also, it's nice to see another company keeping people up to speed with a company blog...
