FAQs

What kind of book should I send?

This is a creative community. It can be an inspiring book about your craft or work, it can be a book that is special because of it’s design or simply something that inspired you because of the content, story or it’s meaning.

How should I send the book?

If shipping the book by post is expensive in your country, you can also send the book via some of the following services that should offer free worldwide shipping: Amazon or BetterWorldBooks. If you also want to send a personal note you can send that one via post, as that should be much cheaper.

How does the matchmaking work?

All participants will be randomly matched with another person. The person to whom you have to send your book will not be the same person that will send you your book.
