Operation Teen Book Drop (#rockthedrop) Is Almost Here!!

Ya'll!  It's almost time for my favorite bookish event of the year!  This coming Thursday, April 18th, is Operation Teen Book Drop (also known as Rock the Drop), in honor of Support Teen Literature Day!  It's super-easy to be a part of it!  All you do is print out some of the above book-plates, paste them in YA books, and drop them in places you think teens will pick them up.  You can take pics of your dropped books and post them on twitter (@readergirlz #rockthedrop) and Facebook, spreading the word!  Trust me, if you do this, you will feel super warm and fuzzy for days to come, knowing that you helped promote teen literacy.  

If you want more info, go to the readergirlz website, where you will find everything you need!

Rock the Drop 2012!!!

Ya'll today is Support Teen Lit Day and in honor of it, readergirlz and Figment are once again hosting Operation Rock the Drop!  It's super easy to take part, and I really enjoyed doing it last year.  All you do is go to the readergirlz Rock the Drop page and print out some of the awesome bookplates, paste them in YA and MG books, and drop them in random public places throughout the day where teens might pick them up.  Take a photo of each "drop" and post it on the readergirlz Facebook page and tweet with the hashtag #rockthedrop.   For even more info, click HERE.

Last year I dropped 12 books, and all of them were snatched up before I left the area.  In fact, I ended up dropping 5 books at the softball park alone, and saw girls already reading them while in the dugout.
