Paper Boat Book Swap: A Case For The Common Classic

  • Paper Boat Booksellers 6040 California Ave SW Ste A Seattle, WA 98136 USA (map)

This month our Paper Boat Book Swap will take place on Thursday September 19th @ 6:00 and our theme is A Case For The Common Classic! Let’s talk and swap your favorite classic and no, it doesn’t have to feature Jo, Beth and Amy-there are plenty of modern classics (or bound to be classics) out there and we want to see what you come up with! As with every book swap, use your imagination-the book doesn’t have to be completely true to the theme and this is what makes it fun!

How it works: Attendees will each purchase a new copy of a book that best signifies our theme. We'll go around the room and everyone will give a short description of their book, why you loved it and why the author is one of your favorites. After that, it turns into an exciting White Elephant style swap, only instead of getting a joke present, you get an amazing new book!

Please consider making your purchase from Paper Boat-let our booksellers know you are buying a book for the swap and receive 10% off. This is a fun monthly event and we promise snacks, sips and great community vibes!
