What is it?
Don't think of it as a contest, but a way to discover books outside your normal reading habits. Participants can look for items that match the prompts and can choose any format (print, eBook, or audio) and do the prompts in any order you wish. With 24 unique prompts, that averages out to 2 books a month! Titles may only count for one prompt each. We also have a GoodReads group you may join to share your titles and book reviews.

What do I win?
Everyone wins bragging rights and the satisfaction of a job well done! However, 3 lucky readers (age 13+) will win $50 gift certificates to River Bend Bookshop. Simply return the completed form to WTML by December 31, 2023, at 5 p.m. to be entered into the raffle. One entry per person. Incomplete forms will not be considered.

Click here to see our Goodreads group to get recommendations for books for each prompt and track your progress.

Be among the first to read the latest books by your favorite authors. Pick as many as 25 names from the list and we will place holds on your behalf whenever a new title is announced. All you have to do is wait for our email alerting you that your hold is ready!

WTML can order multiple copies of books for your book club to pick up each month! To establish your book club at WTML, have your group leader contact the Reference Desk at 860-652-7720 and tell us the number of books you will need each month, any Large Print requirements, and the dates and titles for your upcoming meetings.
