Rookie Yearbook Four (Razorbill)
Rookie is an online magazine for teenage girls with monthly-themed content that includes life lessons, diary entries, DIY projects, playlists and interviews with cultural icons like Mindy Kaling, Shailene Woodley, Laverne Cox, Lena Dunham, Morrissey, FKA Twigs, and Sofia Coppola.
NOTE: As with all Skylight Books in-store events, this reading is free and open to the public (first come, first served). But because we're expecting a large crowd at this event, we'll be giving out numbered tickets to the signing line to keep things organized:
- To get a ticket to the signing line, you must purchase a copy of Rookie Yearbook Four here at Skylight Books.
- If you'd like to pre-order the book before its October 20th release date, you can do so on our website at any time (add the book to your cart, below) and we will reserve a signing line ticket for you.
- Starting October 20th, you can buy books (and get your signing line ticket) in person, by phone, or via our website. Web pre-orders can also be picked up starting the 20th.
- For all website orders for this event, be sure to leave a note in the Order Comments field if you'd like a signing line ticket.
- Can't attend? If you would like a signed book but will not be able to attend, click Signed Copy after adding the book to your cart and we'll do our best to get it signed for you. You may pick up this book in the store after the event, or have it shipped to you.
- Skylight's Friends with Benefits members get priority signing line tickets (and 20% off this and all other event books each month), so be sure to mention your membership (or join) when you order the book
Rookie Yearbook Four exclusives will include a teen bedroom diorama and motivational posters written by Willow Smith, an adolescence survival guide by Rashida Jones; conversations between Donna Tartt and Florence Welch, Solange and Ed Droste, and Tracee Ellis Ross with Jamia; illustrated peeks into the closet of Charli XCX and the artistic influences of Dev Hynes and Ezra Koenig; and Friend Crushes between folks like Shamir and Chloe Chaidez and Amandla Stenberg and Kiernan Shipka. More exclusives to come!
