Today is Monday, September 18, 2017, and that means it’s Hide a Book Day, a collaboration between Goodreads and The Book Fairies.
The Book Fairies are people around the world, sharing the joy of reading by leaving their books in public places to be found by the next reader. Often leaving a note inside, and with our sticker on the outside, the books are then found, read, and then hidden again.
And I am participating.
Last week I announced that I would be “hiding” two signed copies of my second novel, Fender, around Niagara Region:
Around Fort Erie, to be exact.
If you follow me on social media, you might have already seen a couple of posts today with clues on where to find each book.
The first location:
And the second:
They’re free for the taking, but you have to get there first!
If you do find a copy, and you happen to be reading this post, please comment below—or on social media—to notify the rest of us.
And if I might be so bold, would you consider purchasing something from the local businesses where I “hid” these books? I could have hidden them anywhere, but I believe in supporting local commerce.
Just lastly, please remember, in the spirit of everything The Book Fairies stand for,
Take this book, read it & leave it for the next person to enjoy.
Happy hunting.
