Choose What You Read NY: Stampede set for Sept. 1

Forget what the Post says; real New Yorkers are the people who take full advantage of anything free because they recognize it's a perk of living here. (And oh, what a perk.) The organizers behind Choose What You Read NY clearly knew this when they set up a free book giveaway next Tuesday, September 1st, at three locations in Manhattan and one in Brooklyn.

It makes the name slightly misleading, but the free books are coming from those of us who are trying to duck such opportunities, via three Manhattan donation boxes (including one at KGB). None of them are exactly around the corner, but I think I can be a good sport and make a contribution.
