See something you like then come join us!

This VBB is mainly for anyone who is for those looking for books to complete the A to Z Reading Challenge, but is open to anyone who would like to play. The Challenge refers to the first letter of the author's last name. Here are the rules:

1. The main focus of this VBB is to help people find the more difficult letters to help them complete the reading challenge. Difficult letters are: A, E, I, J, O, Q, U, X, Y, and Z. There can be an unlimited number of books for each of these letters. All other letters are limited to 2 books by any author. For example, If there is a Stephen King and a Dean Koontz, or two Dean Koontz books already in the box no more K's can be added until one is taken out.

2. There is no limit as to how long a books can stay in the box.

3. For now there are no rounds. This may change in the future. Book selection is based of a first to post first to receive. Also, please do not make more than one selection per calendar month so that others have a chance to choose from the books listed.

4. You must replace the same number of books that you select.

5. Please PM the person who's you are selecting to let them know that you would like their book.

6. This VBB is open to international players. If you do not wish to ship internationally please let me know which countries you prefer to ship to so that it can be noted next to your name.

7. Place books under the letter corresponding to the author's last name. For books with multiple authors, they can be place under the letter for any of the authors.

8. This is open to any genre of books.

9. If one of your books is selected you must mail it out within six months. For example, if you have a book selected by another player in April you must send the book(s) out by October.

10. TBR books are ok to be listed, but must be noted as a TBR and still be able to send the book out within six months.

11. Any rules changes while go into effect at the start of the next calendar month.
