This ticket was opened with no description. What is the bug in question here?

Without any indication what the bug is, it is hard to know what to test.

(please add a clear description of the issue next time)

TestCase:

• open a book in Read (use GetBooks to download one for example)
• share activity
• go to mesh, invite someone to join
• on the remote XO, accept invitation
• the book should be shared. currently, a white canvas is displayed, and there is a traceback in the log:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gi/_gobject/__init__.py", line 266, in obj_set_property

Note than the bookmarks are not shared in Read. Only the document (the book) is transferred.
