First weeks of Jan, April, July and Oct are BAFAB weeks.

That is when you buy a book for your friend for no reason. Just like that.

" promote reading, promote friendships" That is the idea!

 What are you waiting for?

 Go and get that book that your friend has coveted. Give him/her a surprise!

Right now I'm reading "Money" by Martin Amis. I think I'll buy it for some people I know to remind them they owe me some money.

good idea

Paul, does that mean I don't get a copy?

:D

This is also Banned Books week. So celebrate both and buy a friend a "banned" book!

I say 'amen' to that, Laura!

Sounds like a great thing to do.! thanks

would it be cheating if you gave a friend a book you already had?

No Jane. You can give books you read too. Used books too if you like.

I already gave out!
