This Book Is For You


--by brindlegirl, posted Jan 28, 2017
Recently I participated in my first ever book club type thing. It was in an online forum/group I am a part of, where a book was suggested. So we all agreed to purchase and read. However not everyone could. Either they weren't able to purchase the book, or could not afford. I knew what I had to and would do.

As soon as I finished my book I offered it to another young woman. She lives in the Netherlands and I offered to post. However. The more I looked at this book, the more I knew it had to be kept with me. It was so touching and a book that I needed also (for re-reading and reference).

So I bought her a brand new one and am having it shipped to her. She thinks she is getting my used dog eared copy, when in fact hers will be brand spanking new, just for her ♥

I think books can be really powerful, and i hope the recipient of your brand new book gets as much out of it as you did.
