Description

These days, everybody has a smart phone, and each device would likely have social media apps, particularly the Twitter app. Devices also contain images from a user’s own life—images that they can take and/or share at a moment’s notice, which makes contest engagement possible, even on a Black Friday when everybody’s out of the house, shopping. From Thursday, November 22, 9PM to Friday, November 23 9AM, @LittleBrown Twitter followers sent in their entries to win these great Little, Brown titles. It’s main objective was to reach as many potential buyers of these books as possible while they’re already at the mall!
