The Herrick District Library Summer Challenge is back again for 2023! With multiple ways to participate, it is easier than ever to get reading, watching, listening, and attending. The theme for this year’s Summer Challenge is Choose Your Adventure. Living up to the title, patrons are able to choose from over twenty different adventures. As participants work through their adventures, they will gain experience points that will ultimately net them some fun prizes. These adventures can range from easy, such as “Read an eBook,” to something a little more challenging, like “Read a book where the author has the same initials as you.” To give you a jumpstart on some of the harder Summer Challenge adventures, we’ve gone ahead and compiled some books lists to help you on your journey. For the sake of easier browsing, we have linked to each list, so do not hesitate to view the full lists and see what other titles are offered and what the librarians are saying about each book. Enjoy!
