What is your favorite classic novel? Forget about the literature you were forced to read in college and hated, but think of the classics you read and really enjoyed! Then pick a favorite to send to one swap partner, along with some yummy tea to sip while reading! Each participant in this swap will send a package containing: at least one classic novel (used copies are just fine, as long as they are in excellent condition -- no broken spines, ripped pages, etc), a minimum of 3 tea bags, and a short note stating why the novel you enclosed is your favorite classic novel. Participants must have at least a 4.9 rating, and no 1 ratings in the past 6 months. Please DONT join this swap if you aren't totally 100% sure you can mail out a package!!

Hope you don't mind that i'm new, but I know exactly what I'm going to be swapping, and I won't let anyone down.

Are the books supposed to be off a particular "Classic" book list? Or just something we deem to be classic? I would think there are lots of variations out there about what makes a book one of the classics.

Owww.... This is just the perfect swap for me but I'm a newbie and I don't have any ratings yet. =( Well...maybe you will do a second version ^^

The books don't have to be from any particular "classic'' list. The swap requires a short note/letter be included explaining why the book is your favorite classic....if it's not a book that's usually listed on Classics lists...then you could also explain why you see it as a classic. Could be you feel the author is an important one, or that the book has a particularly poignant point, or maybe you feel the writing is excellent. It's all up to personal opinion....whatever your favorite classic book might be....share it with your swap partner and explain why you feel that way.
