Teen Read Week Book Giveaway















Teen Read Week is an annual event to promote teen literacy.  I feel strongly about the importance of reading, especially for young adults (#YASaves), so we are celebrating Teen Read Week with a book giveaway.  Yay!

We are giving away TWO copies of Legend of Witchtrot Road by E.J. Stevens.  One copy for you and one for the library, school, teen book club, or youth center of your choice.

To enter, please comment on this post and include your email address (so we may contact you if you win). You do not have to be a follower to enter (though I always appreciate a follow!).  This giveaway is to the US, UK, and Canada only.  Giveaway ends October 24th midnight EST.

  2. I would love to win this and share it with the Olive Free Library in W. Goshen NY. Their budget has been badly hit this year.

  3. This is awesome. We need Teen Read Week every week. It's somewhat depressing as to how much teens(ie, my classmates) actually read....
    I'd love to share it with my school library-we had our budget cut by 50%. And they're taking it better than the art department(who complain at us every lesson).
    I'm in the UK.

  4. This was a cool idea =) I'd love to have my hands on E.J.'s 3rd book in this series. Love her characters and also a fun way for others to start this series as well. Thanks for the giveaway.

  5. I would love to enter... My school has a larger YA section than our county library which will not take donated books... SO it would go to the schools

  9. Great idea! Anything that promotes children and teens reading is a good idea in my books! Thanks for the contest! :)I think my local library would appreciate the boost - especially since a couple of months ago our Mayor tried to shut down our libraries ... not cool, Mr. Mayor. Not cool.

    Thanks!

  11. Thank you all so much for stopping by and kicking off Teen Read Week here at From the Shadows!

    I am saddened to read about SO many library and school budget cuts. *le sight* Literacy, and the life long love of reading that can grow from the gift of literacy, is important.

    As I tweeted last week; If you give a child a book, a mind is opened to the infinite possibilities of imagination.

    Best of luck with the giveaway! :)

    xx,

  15. This is also something I feel real strong about, also. I have a friend that teaches 7th grade and most of my read YA books go to her classroom library to be shared with her students.

  17. Thank you all so much for joining our Teen Read Week celebration!

    Lisa: I have donated to so many libraries and believe that contributing during October, which is also National Bullying Prevention month, is important. I can say honestly that books saved me from the darkness of my teen years. YA Saves! Giving the gift of books is so important.

  22. I have the first two and would love to read the third. My local library is expanding. They have just built on another location and I am sure they could use the book. (They have been closed for a month and are reopening on the 29th. Many people in the community are having withdrawls right now.) I might choose to give it to my daughters school library. I would see who needed it more.
