USPS does provide free tracking on packages now-so it is not difficult to comply with.
You must respond to all emails from hosts within a timely manner.
After receiving your package you must post about it on your blog-it is non-negotiable.

Those are the rules so if you are a book loving blogger you might want to jump in on this one.   Beth and Angie are really great at organizing these swaps and making sure that everyone gets matched up with great partners so I want to give them a big shout out. THANKS!
