About US

I am someone who still relishes the feeling of finishing a book with actual pages. For me, there is no finality to finishing a digital read, with no cover to shut...I feel the same way about hanging up on someone on a cell phone. (Yah! push that end-call button with gusto!) The challenge is that I can't bear to throw out a book, so I have amassed quite a collection.  My favorite thing to do with them when I'm done is put them back out into the world so they can keep touching others. I have done this by myself for about a year, just randomly sending books to friends, and it makes me feel so good that I wanted to share the feeling with others.

Page It Forward Books will be a community of knowledge-seeking, adventure-seeking, paper-book-seeking individuals who also really love the feeling of sharing.  Lots of amazing ways to connect page-people are in the works for the site. I hope you will join us in building that community.

When you sign up as a founding member of Page it Forward, you will receive a credit to receive your first book FREE. After your first freebie, you will gain credits to get more re-homed books by getting rid of some of your own. You will be able to post titles you want to pass on, and other members will be able to request the ones they want. When you send a book to another member , you pay the cost of shipping (roughly $3.50 using USPS Media Mail), then you have a credit to get a book from someone else completely FREE.

No catch! We are a give-first model to reconnect people with the feeling of  doing something nice for someone else. Plus, through the exchange of getting a book back in return for FREE, you get to experience the pleasure of being GIFTED a book. 

We are working on the backend to fully launch, but signing up now will get your foot in the door as a founding member! Founding members get first dibs on the initial offering of fully FREE books!
