Would you like to have a book exchange? There was one before, but I wasn't in Qatar that time, so if many of you have books for exchanging, we could organize something!
So what do you think?
What in the world is planned at the Beach tomorrow, you are getting BOOKS onto the BEACH... O MY GOOOOOOODDDDDDDDDD!
What is this...?
How has this been planned...yikessss...!
LOL! Anyways, I'm so glad I dont have a reading habit at all... :P I dont need to worry about any books except Playboy...and Azzi darling, when you get one for daRude, just tear a few pages out of them and give them to Ashwin too... :P
Any of you folks interested in making my load lighter?- Herne you suggested that!
I am leaving the country for good on 31st July and have some really great books for sale at very reasonable prices. PM me in case you are interested - I am at Wakra - in the Ezdan compound.
It was just too bad I left my Maxwell book at the airport coz I have an excess baggage.. i really regretted that moment I gave it to one of the staff there.. Hope I could find that kind of book here. 17 Indisputable.....Any idea guys?..... I have Religious Books ( Islamic and Christian), I have for ladies, for daily bread and other stuff... Pm me if you have anything to ask.. maybe I could search one for you...
tcom = = = come on dear, youre presence was absolutely in need on the BP...we cant stand without you and no reasoning pluzzeee... (lol) i know you will smile...
so its final all book lovers will meet up on friday on BP..
is there anyone can come with the venue?...QLERS had a beach party this 24th right? so book exchange meeting would be a night before then? or why should be meet in the beach party and talk about it then finally come up with a final idea were we should finalize our book exchange launching...
I have loads of books I could sell these at bargain basement prices -I am leaving the country at the end of the month. These are hardback and paperbacks including some HPs, Wilbur Smith, Grisham, Biographies, fiction, etc, etc. Also Asterix, Archie and Mad comics.
I am in wakra in the Ezdan Compound behind the wakra health centre.
have been taking advantage of a 'book drop' on 2nd floor of friends appartments, someone has set up a bookcase and people just come along donate, pick up and return books as they wish.
Be good if we could have one drop off point - but meeting regularly would do it - let me know if Monday is on
This is picture is obviously NOT me, I don't smoke..
and it's only good to get rid of those things you don't want (for pscyhotherapy), but things you want you shouldn't give away. I don't want to destroy the soul piece of anybody. :)
It's true that had working hadn't killed anyone yet, but why to take risk?
we can meet and fix the rules and regulations for exchanging the books.Exchange our ph.Number also.One week is the time for reading books and books should not be damaged.If the people want to return back before oneweek he has to return the same to the selected nominee( We call him/her as book care taker)
We coulkd meet up...and bring a number of books we could lend out. Then all agree to meet again after 2-3 weeks to return what we borrowed and get what we lent out.
Surely we could exchange contact numbers in case we want to return it before scheduled meet-up or if the person who borrowed the book didn't return it on time.
Like me who have all 7 Harry Potter books, and lost the 6 because someone forgot to return it, I too would be hesitant to lend any books that I have.
sometimes letting go of some stuff is therapeutic aside from this is a form of sharing your knowledge as well...yet, there were still plenty of options to choose if you were married to your books already...
providing this idea, i want to call you sweet honey sorry over excited.i am also a book lover.We can assemble in one place we can borrow or lend books to Qlrs and with some conditions.the books should be with in--- days.Books should not be missed/tear/damaged.Books should not have any ugly comments.
Books could not be used as a post box( romance ! ha ha )
i handed nothing when i arrived here...all my treasured was left behind in my library back home but i am looking forward for a good bargain...hope you will keep me posted...
Could you mention what kind of books you'd like to exchange? I'm a self-confessed fan of pulp fiction. Give me a Jeffrey Archer or a Wilbur smith or a Matthew Reilly and you wouldn't have me back for another three days at least.
Please do lemme know what kinda books you interested in. It sounds like an exciting plan.
Hi, I'm fond of books and own a few hundred, most of them are in Urdu. I do not want to exchange the books, nonetheless I'm willing to lend them to the interested readers who would return to me after reading.

When and where to meet to have this book lovers meet.
Please arrange after 8Pm, then only it is possible for me to come and meet all you and get books to read.
But I'm intending to purchase another set soon. :-)
But I could lend the HP7 in exchange for Nora Roberts's "Heart of the Sea" (3rd of a trilogy).
I got Michael Palmer's "The Society" & "Fatal"
have been taking advantage of a 'book drop' on 2nd floor of friends appartments, someone has set up a bookcase and people just come along donate, pick up and return books as they wish.
Be good if we could have one drop off point - but meeting regularly would do it - let me know if Monday is on

It's true that had working hadn't killed anyone yet, but why to take risk?
By the way, anybody has the new book of Sophie Kinsella (Twenties girl) or anything from Carole Matthews or Emily Giffin?
It's true that had working hadn't killed anyone yet, but why to take risk?
Hi guys;
Sorry, I was having a lunch break, but I'm glad so many fo you liked the idea!
No problem, lending is fine as well! :)
Azilana, for example I have the HP6 I might exchange that one with you to have your full collection!
So when you guys would like to meet up?
Monday is fine, or if it's not good for all of you, we can make it Thursday evening, whatever suits you guys.
Darude, here I am in Doha! (for 2 and half more months more)
It's true that had working hadn't killed anyone yet, but why to take risk?

[img_assist|nid=50852|title=hmm|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=|height=0]
Darude great idea but fix the time after 8PM.
we can meet and fix the rules and regulations for exchanging the books.Exchange our ph.Number also.One week is the time for reading books and books should not be damaged.If the people want to return back before oneweek he has to return the same to the selected nominee( We call him/her as book care taker)
How about my point of view friends"?
Monday night at some cafe?
We coulkd meet up...and bring a number of books we could lend out. Then all agree to meet again after 2-3 weeks to return what we borrowed and get what we lent out.
Surely we could exchange contact numbers in case we want to return it before scheduled meet-up or if the person who borrowed the book didn't return it on time.

Herne,

Books could not be used as a post box( romance ! ha ha )
Etc etc, how about other ideas.

Id need therapy if I let my books go. You're still sharing knowledge by lending.
Sounds good...but yeah I also like to get my books back.
i handed nothing when i arrived here...all my treasured was left behind in my library back home but i am looking forward for a good bargain...hope you will keep me posted...
big thanks in advance!!!
Oryx is the one heading the BOOK group. But I think she's on vacation.
If all agree, let's set a place to meet up and swap books. Or those can lend us :-)
