Let's swap books . . .

On January 9th in 1788, Connecticut ratified the Constitution becoming the fifth state in the union. There were 128 Yes votes and 40 No votes. Do you know which state was first? Happy Birthday to the state of Connecticut!

Today's bithday quote: "One's life has value so long as one attributes value to the life of others, by means of love, friendship, indignation and compassion." - The Coming of Age by Simone de Beauvoir

I've joined paperbackswap.com and look forward to my first swap. It seems like an interesting way to meet bibliophiles, although I do prefer leather bound books (which can be hard to deal with being an animal lover). So now, let's swap books.
