Book Speed Dating
Set up tables in a circle so that each spot has a book (old, new, fiction or nonfiction, maybe titles that fit the TSRP theme), a pencil, and a paper to write titles. Set a timer for three minutes and let the teens look at the book, read the back or start reading if they want. At the end of the three minutes, they can write down the title if it's a book they'd like to "see more of.” Everyone then passes the book to their right and the timer is set again. After a couple rounds, I can break and booktalk a few titles.
