Hide a Book Day: Highlights from Around the World

Hide a Book Day is finally here! As part of our Ten-Year Anniversary Celebration, Goodreads is teaming up with The Book Fairies to hide books for people to find, read, and pass on.
Once you hide your book, take a picture and share it with us on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram using the hashtags #goodreadsturns10, #hideabookday, and #ibelieveinbookfairies—and don't forget to let us know where you are. From the United States to Thailand, from South Africa to Australia, help us spread Hide a Book Day all over the world! Check out where your fellow Goodreads members and Book Fairies have hidden books so far:

Hi Cattylou! Book fairies hide books every single day of the year - so you haven't missed your chance to get involved!
Hid Tad Williams' "The Dragonbone Chair" and Elizabeth Wein's "Code Name Verity" in Dallas, and "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" in Lewisville TX. I'll drop some more on my way to Lubbock next week as well. :)
Today I left a book with Book Fairies and Goodreads stickers in our neighborhood book sharing box in Silverton, Oregon. Would love to post the picture but don't know how.
