BOOK SWAP or EXCHANGE

Hello,

Just wondering if anyone is part of a book swap or exchange? I am fairly new to real estate and would be interested in reading some of the newer books out there. I have Rich Dad Poor Dad and Cash Flow Quadrant. 

If anyone out there has anything they would be willing to trade or exchange, please let me know. 

Thanks!

Seems like a fun idea, I'm a good ways away from Minnesota but I highly recommend checking out all the books in the bigger pockets store. Very detailed and insightful.

Using media mail it would cost a lot less than buying the books. I'd cover the first one if you had one you wanted to trade?

@Adam Widdicombe it may seem cheap but go to your local Goodwill or thrift shop and pick up more books for $.50.  I do this periodically and find many good books.  I actually have a little inventory of books I plan to read.

I also have several copies of the books you mentioned - I give them to friends and other people.
