It's supposed to be You Recommend Wednesday but...

I heard about a group that's looking for donations of YA and other books, so I decided to blog about that instead. It's the Color Online Summer Book Drive, they need help building the library they run in connection with their local non-profit, Alternatives for Girls.

They have a wishlist up at Powell's Books. https://www.powells.com/cgi-bin/wishlist?email=cora_litgroup@yahoo.com&list=Color%20Online

They will also accept gently used books and you can send those directly via Media mail rate here:

ALTERNATIVES FOR GIRLS
C/O LIBRARY
903 W. GRAND BLVD
DETROIT, MI 48208

And here's the link to the original blog post:

Donate if you can, otherwise spread the word! :)

Hi Heather,
Thank you so much for spreading the word. Our girls range in age from elementary to adults. Every donation is appreciated.
