World Book Night 2012

For those of you that know me, I am a voracious reader and have a passion for literacy.  I just learned about the 2nd Annual World Book Night.  This year it is on April 23, 2012.  You can find out more details about this event here: World Book Night.  Last year over 1 million books were given out.  The deadline to sign up is: February 1, 2012, so you have a few more weeks to decide.  My top three favorite books from this list are:

Glass Castle

Little Bee

Bel Canto

What are your top three?

I encourage you to participate and help those in your community gain access to some great books.

Happy Sharing!

  1. I always find lists like these interesting – what is listed, and what isn’t. There are some authors on there I really like, and some books I ‘should’ have read but haven’t. But from their list my favorites are:

    The History of Love
    Kite Runner
    My Sister’s Keeper.

  2. Interesting idea. Curious to know why this was established in this format. My 3, the only 3 I have read on the list are:

    Kite Runner
    Little Bee
    Glass Castle

    All are pretty profound stories and ones that left a lasting impression. There are a couple on the list I would like to read: Bel Canto and The Hunger Games

    Take care!
