Title: Lost in translation swap?

Are we doing one anytime soon? I have a few saved up for one (and no, I'm not offering to host. :nono: )

What kind of swap is that?

azuki - January 14, 2008 10:19 PM (GMT)
May I venture to guess that it's for translated fiction?

Yes-any book that was orignially in one language, then translated into english. We did a swap here some months ago, but I can't find it, and I can't remember who hosted it...

(Anyone else remember this swap? I received Neverending Story from someone because of that swap!)

OOOhhh... I wasn't here when you did this last time, but I have a perfect book for it.

Here is the reveal thread from that swap: http://bookobsessed.com/index.php?showtopic=1307

Ah-ha, I found the play thread: http://bookobsessed.com/index.php?showtopic=1306

Morsecode ran this swap last time, did she not?

ETA: Duh - just need to look at Zosime's post :rolleyes:

GateGypsy - January 15, 2008 08:24 AM (GMT)
I could see myself being interested in this idea... :whistle:

azuki - January 16, 2008 02:35 AM (GMT)
Wow it's almost a year already since the last swap! I'd say it's about time!

candy-is-dandy - January 16, 2008 10:17 AM (GMT)
I would be interested. :rolleyes:

msjoanna - January 16, 2008 03:55 PM (GMT)
I'd be interested as well, but don't want to commit without a date certain because I'll try to read a book in advance so I can keep my Owed TBR list managable. I'm still trying to get caught up from a few too many relays late last year... :blush:

midwinter - January 17, 2008 08:22 PM (GMT)
I'm very interested! I've got several possible offerings near the top of my TBR :)

If Morsie doesn't want to organize I wouldn't mind organizing this swap for mid-end Feb?

That would be fine with me!! :)

geishabird - January 18, 2008 05:08 PM (GMT)
I think I'd play if it's in February. I have a good book on TBR that would work for this and it'll certainly be read by then. :D

Sorry that I've been lax about swaps lately.

Lauren messaged me since you all are keen on having a literature-in-translation swap and I told her to go ahead an organize one. :)
