One of my favorite things to do in the summer is to curl up in Central Park and read a good back under the shade. Since I am cutting back on a lot of unnecessary spending, I often don't buy as many books as I would. The library only has so much of a selection; often its difficult to find specific titles. I'm stumped when it comes to getting the latest books on the New York Times bestsellers for a lower price. A good friend of mines introduced me to a website called
BookMooch, where you can trade your books with other savvy readers, only at the cost of shipping your book. On
BookMooch create a list of books you have and want to receive from other members. I was also told that a lot of people do swaps on
Craigslist; mutual trades amongst people for goods they actually need.
Have you ever used a swap site? Do you know any other swap sites that are helpful?

"...curl up in Central Park and read a good back under the shade."
