“(I host this topic twice a year (around Christmas and again in June), and people love it! List the top 10 books you’d love to own and include a link to your wishlist so that people can grant your wish. After you post, jump around the Linky and grant a wish or two if you’d like. Please don’t feel obligated to send anything to anyone!)”
I don’t need anyone to buy me books. Let’s be honest, I have more than enough and I have great library access. However, there are programs where people do need books. So my bookish wish is for people to look at these programs.
The Book Truck
The Book Truck gives books to foster-care, homeless, and low income teens in Los Angeles County. Check out their Amazon wishlist here.
Books Through Bars
“Books Through Bars has been sending free books to incarcerated people in six mid-Atlantic states (Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia) for over 30 years.”
Find their Bookshop.org wishlist here. Use this address for shipping:
4722 Baltimore Ave, Philadelphia PA 19143
What a great twist on the topic! I hadn’t heard of these charities, so thanks for the heads-up.
Happy TTT!
