Literacy Ladies 2027
🎉 Literacy Ladies Book Exchange
A grown-up book swap for readers who love stories and community!
Check out our genre specific, all genders welcome Shelf Shuffle Book Exchange
How It Works:
Bring a wrapped, grown-up book (not all have to be romance!) and leave with two:
📚 One from a white elephant-style exchange
🎁 One hand-picked surprise from Maggie Mae’s
Themed Exchanges!
