Pleasure Reading


Pleasure reading, you ask? Yes! The blog team and I know there's a book out there for you. The trick here is finding a great book, one that matches your interests and one that holds your attention. How do you judge a book? That is the topic we'll explore today as we attempt to match everyone with a good book.

A visit to the American Library Association often helps me look through the top rated books and read a bit about them. Visit this link to see the current top reads in the area of your interest.

Gateway Awards also offers a list of great titles voted on by students. Visit that link to see this year's top reads.

So, hang on! You'll get plenty of time in class to get quietly comfortable with a good book and share with an audience of your friends. I can't wait to see what you select.
