The Mass Center for the Book is organizing a Reading Challenge for 2024 and we invite you to join! If you read one of the themed books each month, there is a chance to win a prize. We will be creating displays based on some of the categories and staff are always happy to help you pick just the right book. No sign-up is required, but we would love to know if you participate. Stop by and pick up a postcard or a bookmark to track your selections. More info at: https://www.massbook.org/readingchallenge
