Adult Summer Reading Challenge

This week we are challenging you to find a new author to love using Novelist! You can find Novelist on our Online Resources page. Pro tip- Once in Novelist, search an author you already know and love and under the search results you’ll notice an “author read-alikes” link, which will provide you with a list of authors similar to one you already love! You can even take it a step further and place a hold on a book by this new author to see if you’ll enjoy it! Just email us or tag us on our social pages to show us your new author.

Teen Scene

Our Teen Take & Make of the week is a DIY stress ball, and you can find the how-to video on our YouTube channel if you want to make it alongside us!

This week Teens are also challenged to find a new author to love using Novelist, so we are really looking forward to seeing the authors discovered by our Teens!
