Have You Done It Yet?

Well, have you? And by “it,” I refer to the Adult Summer Reading Program. (What were you thinking? Get your mind out of the gutter . . .)

Novel Destinations is the theme for this year's Adult Summer Reading program.

It’s almost half over, but you can still sign up. All you have to do is register, and then if you read, and log, at least 5 books or other items by August 13th, you will be eligible for the grand prize drawing at your selected Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh location. Each library has its own grand prize specifically chosen for its customers. For example, the grand prize for the Main Library is a $50 Big Burrito gift card.

And really, how hard is it to read five books over the summer? If you belong to any of our book discussion groups and read the books selected for June, July and August, you’ve already got three on your list.  Then you only need two more.  Might I suggest one of our staff picks? Or a book from our Adult Summer Reading themed booklists? Or you could turn to your fellow readers for suggestions.

So c’mon, you were going to read anyway. You might as well get something for it.
