From 5/25/25 to 11/16/25, we challenge you to read 25 books!
For each box, the book should fit the category of that row and column. For example, the center box is your favorite genre that has won or been nominated for an award.
Like our normal adult Winter & Summer Reading Programs, all participation is eligible for an entry in a prize raffle:
- A board with any box that is not part of a complete row, column, or diagonal is one entry in a prize raffle.
- A board with any complete row, column, or diagonal is one entry in a prize raffle.
- One complete board is one entry in a prize raffle.
When you hand in your board, you will fill out your information for the raffle separately. One board is only eligible for one of the 3 raffles. Your board can have multiple entries, and you can submit as many boards as you like.
Need recommendations?
You can use the form for Your Next 5 Books to request personalized recommendations! We have a staff recommendation display at the library for browsing and we only need mild prompting to chat about our current reads!
