Congratulations to our winners — and to every single club and person who participated! This competition was a joy to be part of, thanks to all you bookworms. It was a close competition from start to finish, with a strong final week that saw 141 participants from 30 book clubs cross the finish line. Bookworms showed up with reading buddy photos (montage coming soon), Top 3 Reads of 2025 lists (we're compiling a cumulative list — watch for it), and a landslide of thank-you notes and sweet treats for library staff (which were much appreciated). AND, more than 72 bookworms chose to make a gift to the Foundation during the competition — that's community in action. Happy library-ing!
