THANK YOU!
Just a small pause to say a big thank you to the YA YA Sisterhood and our other blog readers who supported the Guys Lit Wire/Operation Teen Book Drop book drive to the reservation schools we mentioned a couple of weeks ago. As of the 24th, the last official day of the book drive, we’ve sold out. 772 books were bought for Ojo Encino Day School & Alchesay High, which is everything they wanted on their wish lists.
Everything. Reference books, basketball biographies, classics of the literary canon, and the regrettable inevitable Twilight books. Everything.
Wonder when the last time was these kids got everything they wished for? Thank you, guys, for your help in making the world a beautiful place for someone else. (And psst, if you didn’t get your order in with Powell’s, you’ve still got their address, and you can send a book directly to their library!)
awesome! congrats on your accomplishment.
