51st OLD NEW MARKET
BOOK SWAP: Turning Pages and Stories. A New Form of Exchange
from B633
August 30
"BOOK SWAP" is a new book experience that combines books, conversation, and exchange. During the event, we offer participants two types of SWAPs. 【Story SWAP】 Based on a common theme, participants bring their own books. They then exchange (SWAP) personal stories and thoughts with one another—such as “Why did you choose this book?” and “How has this book influenced you?” 【Swapping Books】 The venue will also feature special books carefully selected by our staff. If you come across a book that feels like “the one,” you can swap the book you brought for that specific book and take it home. This event’s theme is “Things I Want to Work Hard At” and “Reasons I Can Keep Going.” What are you striving for right now, or what are you currently working hard on? What book inspires you when you feel like giving up? Through books brought in around these shared themes, we provide a space to learn about others’ stories, discover new books, and connect with people in a relaxed atmosphere.
