Thursday: Readers’ Roundup – Event in NYC *tonight!*
Not an event of mine, mind you, but still promising to be made of awesome. As per my rgz NYC host post:
If you’re in the New York City area, check out tonight’s “Great Teen Reads” event at Books of Wonder, featuring Leah Cypess (Desires of the Dead), Lisa Schroeder (The Day Before), Adele Griffin (Tighter), and Laurie Faria Stolarz (Deadly Little Games).
Also in the blogosphere today courtesy of MOI: Brian Farrey at the YA Contemps: 
The best YA promotes discussion. Whether it’s chatting over coffee about which werewolf from which book is sexier or some sort of deep discourse about hard-hitting issues that reflect the realities of many readers, YA succeeds when discussion follows.
Readers’ Roundup SPECIAL EDITION: I Rock The Drop!
Today’s the day, people! Figment and readergirlz have partnered to promote the 2010 Rock the Drop celebration in honor of YALSA’s Support Teen Lit Day. Download a bookplate, slip it into a beloved YA novel, and “drop” that book for an unsuspecting reader to find! Snap a photo of your “drop” and send it to readergirlz or figment to be featured on the blog, and you’re entered to win a set of Ruby Oliver books by E. Lockhart.
What are you waiting for? Go rock the drop!
Top Shelf Tuesday: Still rockin’!
Figment.com is running info about Rock the Drop all week long! Come Rock the Drop with us, and help spread the word!
Thanks mucho to rgz Miami HOST Crissa Chappell (and her niece, Corie, a very good sport!) for the excellent video.
