- The Great Gatsby Book Drop
Join us in our efforts to recycle The Great Gatsby after you have read it. Our Book Drop is earth-friendly, and gives you a way to share the adventures of Jay Gatsby, Nick Carraway, Daisy Buchanan and the others with countless others in our community and around the globe.
The concept is simple. Read the book yourself and then pass it on to someone new. Leave it on a park bench, at a coffee shop, at a hotel on vacation or on the bus. Share it with a friend or tuck it onto a bookshelf at the gym -- anywhere it might find a new reader! Then enter the information on where you “dropped” the book HERE.
What happens next is up to fate... we never know where the book may end up next. Track the book's journey as it is passed on from person to person on our map.
