A Grown-Up Book Swap

Books and Brews Boston is headed BACK to Dorchester Brewing Company! Please bring a gently used book (or books) to swap. Dorchester Brewing will be serving their legendary beers, and M&M BBQ will make sure you leave with a full belly. Parkside Bookshop will be there selling the newest, most popular titles, and Aleese Lin will be selling/signing copies of her book Samantha Spuk: Paranormal Wedding Planner. Any remaining books at the end of the swap will be donated to the Prison Book Program (check them out- they do incredible work!). Can't wait to see you!

Here's how the swap works:

• Bring a book or books (up to 10 per person) that are ready for a new home. Please consider bringing books that you have enjoyed rather than unwanted items. We cannot accept books that are damaged (water-logged, written in etc.).
• Check in with the host(s) and give us your book(s) to put on the swap tables.
• Browse the books and grab up to four new (to you) books to take home.
• Come in and out of the swap as much as you'd like. Don't forget to grab a beer and mingle with other bookies!
• Take a chance and purchase a Blind Date With a Book to add to your swap pile.
