Last year I participated in World Book Night with my
selected giveaway of The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri. I was first introduced to Lahiri’s work in an
undergraduate English class. I adored
her short stories and was thrilled when the professor said she was working on a
full-length novel. Well before I started
my blog, I was telling people to read her books. So giving The Namesake to others on World
Book Night 2012 was an excellent experience.
Unfortunately my work schedule this time around means I likely won’t be
able to participate in World Book Night 2013, but I recommend it for anyone who
wants to share a love of reading. To
apply you must be at least 16 years old and live in the United States, the United Kingdom, or Germany.
All the details and application can be found on the World Book Night
website. (The links are for the US site, but the other countries can be accessed through the US site.)
