In support of Teen Lit Day, we are totally droppin' it like it's hot. And by it, we mean books. And by droppin', we mean leaving them in a public place for someone to find and enjoy. This awesome initiative was started by readergirlz a few years ago, and you can learn more at their site.

So if you're in the Cincy area (specifically around Loveland) keep an eye out for these:

Going Bovine Stupid Fast

If you're not in the Cincy area, we'd still like to "drop" a little something for you. Think of it as a thank you for all your support/votes in the Independent Book Blogger Awards. (Psst: Voting is open through April 23rd. *wink wink*)

Anyway, how would y'all like SIGNED copies of the Iron Fey series, books 1-3?

The Iron King (Iron Fey, #1) The Iron Daughter (Iron Fey, #2) The Iron Queen (Iron Fey, #3) 

ONE winner will receive ALL 3 books. If you would like to be that winner, please enter by commenting on this post by April 23rd. If you rocked the drop, tell us which book(s) you set free. If you didn't rock the drop, tell us which book(s) you'd love to find in the wild.

Winner will be announced on our Tues, April 24th post. Must have US mailing address.

Also, this isn't a requirement, but we'd love for you to spread the word about our giveaway. Thanks!!

PS: Kristan did a really fun interview about blogging, books, and diversity for the All Things Asian celebration. She's also giving away 2 copies of her ebook TWENTY-SOMEWHERE, about 3 best friends tackling life after college. Check it out, yeah? Man, we're all about the free books today. ;)

Unfortunately, I haven't rocked the drop yet, but if I find any book in the wild, I'd like it to be Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins. (:

Happy Support Teen Lit Day!

I only found out about Rock the Drop today, so I wasn't able to do anything. But I would have loved to find Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi!

Totally rocked the drop today in SO OR, with Hades and The Fox Inheritance which were liberated in pairs to the populous.

It was great!

Hooray for Rock the Drop love! I recapped it here (http://ashleylovesbooks.blogspot.com/2012/04/rock-drop.html) - 6 books all around my suburb in North San Diego! It was so much fun to leave little gifts, and I hope they went to happy homes...my favourite was probably leaving Thirteen Reasons Why riding the back of a huge turtle statue outside one of the local libraries haha. I would have loved to see when a person discovered it.

Thanks for the giveaway. I also am a slacker and never even heard of dropping books off somewhere for people to find. Great idea! I'd love to find something I will like and never heard of!
