Welcome to my first Pay it Forward Book Exchange.
Since this is my first giveaway I thougth I'd get started with a BANG. One lucky person will win 5 brand new books :) Sign ups end on May 30th and the winner will be announced on May 31st.
Back on Blossom Street (The Knitting Books #3) by Debbie Macomber
Belong to Me: A Novel by Marisa De los Santos
Belong to Me: A Novel by Marisa De los Santos
The Third Victim by Lisa Gardner
If you'd like to win these books, here is what you must do:
1. On your blog, write a post about this giveaway, using my "Pay it Foward" button, and then link back to my post. I am sure your readers would appreciate learning about the chance to win a book. You must complete this step to be put in the drawing, unless of course you don't have a blog ;)
2. Sign the Mr Linky (the Mr Linky is that list of name at the end of this post - just type your name in the box) with your name and specific URL of your Pay it Foward post. Note, if you are not a blogger, you may still enter to win. Just sign your name on the Mr. Linky without a URL and then email me (lori @ frandanbolt dot com) your contact information. Please note on your email that it is for the Pay It Forward Book Giveaway.
3. If you’re the lucky winner of the book giveaway and you have your own blog I ask that you, in turn, host a drawing to give that book away for free to one of your readers, after you’ve had a chance to read it (let’s say, within a month after you’ve received the book). If you mail the book out using the media/book rate that the post office offers it’s pretty inexpensive. If you're a non-blogger who has won the book, please consider donating the book to your local library or shelter after you're done with it.
4. If you’re really motivated and want to host your own “Pay It Forward” giveaway at any time this month, feel free to grab the button above to use on your own blog. Just let me know so I can publish a post on my blog plugging your giveaway and directing my readers your way!
Make sure to visit Overwhelmed with Joy for other Pay it Forward giveaways.
If you have any books that you'd like to Pay It Forward yourself this month, please leave a comment below and I'll link you in this post.

Ok, I'm probably inept but I can't seem to find your e-mail address, so I'm including it on my comment. Thanks for the giveaway! - Swapna, skrishna1183 [at] yahoo [dot] com

Hi Lori-
I've posted about your giveaway and submitted the link in Mr Linky. I hope I did everything right. Please let me know if I goofed.
I don't have a blog but I'd like to offer a free book also.
It's a signed copy of Love in the Fast Lane by Jenna McKnight.

Lori, what date will you be choosing winners for these books? I'm linking you up in my original May Pay It Forward Book Exchange post!
Lori,
I'm not going to ask to be entered in your drawing because I have a stack of books to read and catch up on, but I have linked you in my May Pay It Forward Book Exchange post.
Thanks for participating by hosting your own giveaway. I do appreciate it! Check back on 24 May when I’ll draw and announce the winner of my giveaway!
Awesome idea Lori, hope you have a great turnout!!! :)
Please enter me and stop by and enter mine!
I don't have a blog but I would love to enter :) If I won I would donate the books when I was finished with them. Thank you for the giveaway!
I have done as instructed I think - but this is my first ever Pay it Forward. Please take a look and let me know if I have done this correctly if you have a chance. Seems like a lot of fun!

Done perfectly!
I'm excited to give these books away :)
Okay! I've got you on my blog and I'm crossing my fingers. Free books! What could be better?
Are you giving all 5 books to one person or spreading the books between 5 people? If it's the latter, then I would most like "Belong to Me".
One lucky person will get ALL of the books ;) Next month I will probably split it up depending on how many people sign up ;)
Hey thanks for visiting my blog. I'd be in this contest, except for some reason any time I try to insert a picture it doesn't work!! So I'm unable to use the 'pay it forward button'
Thanks for your help :) I've added your contest info to my blog. I've also added your name and link to my LibraryThing Blogger page, drop by to make sure your info is correct :)
Hi Lori - Very cool contest idea! I like your book selections :) I blogged about it here: http://sheistoofondofbooks.wordpress.com/
Blogged ya!
Best,
A Bookblogger's Diary
I posted a note about your contest on my blog. I'm also giving away a book. What a fun idea!
I don't have a blog either -- unless I just signed up for one to sign here, in which case I have no idea what to do with it????
My contact info is franhue [at] yahoo [dot] com.
Thanks for the contest.

Hello fellow LTer!
Thanks for making this contest open to non-bloggers too! I'm super excited about reading Belong to Me by Marisa De los Santos, ever since I read about it on LT.
