Every year LibraryThing members participate in “SantaThing,” our Secret Santa for book lovers.
This year we’re inviting Littens to join in!
The idea is simple: You sign up and pay $15–50 and choose your favorite bookstore. We match you with someone to pick books for, and someone else will pick books for you. We try to match people with similar reading tastes, and members help each other out with suggestions. LibraryThing staff does all the ordering and everyone gets surprise books for the holidays!
SantaThing is a joint effort between LibraryThing and Litsy. When signing up, you can opt to give and receive from members of only one community or the other, or either.
LibraryThing/Litsy takes no cut: this is a community project, not a money-maker. And it’s a lot of fun.
The first 15 Littens to sign up for SantaThing will get a free Litsy mug! (1)

Hoping to see you in SantaThing this year,

1. We’re defining Litsy members as members who posted to Litsy at least once in the last 14 days—this to favor regular Litsy members, not LibraryThing members who signed up for Litsy once upon a time. If there aren’t enough of these, we’ll open it to any Litsy member.
