Okay. Advise me.

I have a few more ARCs to give away, and I'm stumped. So how should I give them away? (Hint: saying "give them to me" will actually not endear you, unless you finish that sentence with "I do all the buying for a major bookstore" or something similar, and can present credentials.) Have you got a favorite review site? Have I missed a contest? Should I abandon them on BART cars? What?

Propose anything. I am open to the crazy.

EDIT: So it's said, the "abandon on BART cars" option was a joke. I won't do anything that involves releasing ARCs into the wild, outside the bounds of the standard social contract, with no idea where they went. Not okay.

A librarian I admire, who does so much amazing, creative work in the field, does a book blog, and she's feeling a little burnt on paranormal fiction. I think Rosemary and Rue would give her some hope for the genre.

Her name is Jenna, she's the curator of the Zine Library at Barnard and you can find her at http://jenna.openflows.com/

Ask her if she'd like me to send her one. If she would, have her send me her mailing address. :)

I'll try to catch her on AIM tomorrow! Thanks for considering her.
