Join Library Director Lisa Sherman in taking on the 2024 Reading Challenge! All year long, book group participants may select a book of their choosing based on each month's theme, and we'll get together to discuss our selections. Theme-related book recommendations for this month are offered here, but participants may select any book related to the theme. September's challenge is "a debut book by a Massachusetts author."

The 2024 Reading Challenge is brought to you by the Massachusetts Center for the Book. It gives people of all ages in Massachusetts a chance to set and meet the goal of reading a book each month in a specific category and to share their experience within their reading community. Participating readers can enter to win prizes. Bookmarks with all monthly themes are available at the circulation desk. For more information and to sign up, click here.
