Join our year-round Teen Reading Challenge: Read Around the Year!

Here’s how it works:

Each month, teens are challenged to read a book with a unique theme for a prize. Pick up a punch-card reading tracker at any PCPL location. Come in each month to let us know what you read, get your card punched, and pick out a prize. If you read an on-theme book for every month, you win an extra bonus prize at the end of the challenge!

More details:

Any type of young adult or chapter book works, whether it’s from the library or your own collection. The themes will be on display at the Tell City location and posted on social media every month. If you skip a month, you have until the end of the challenge to read a book with that theme. For ages 12-18.

Themes so far:
