2023 Friends’ Reading Challenge

By FPLFriend_Susan

The Friends of the Frisco Public Library is announcing our first annual Reading Challenge! The Friends will select a genre each month and invite library guests to enjoy one title within that genre selected. We will announce the genre the first Friday of each month right here on the Library's website, along with a few suggested titles. Sometime before the end of the month, readers can stop by the Friends’ Bookshop to fill out a reviewer/entry form and share a thought or two about what they read. Why read and review? A drawing will be held each month to win a $5 Book Bucks Gift Card to use at the Bookshop! Winners will be contacted directly. Full sweepstakes rules can be found below. 

The 2023 Reading Challenge is open to everyone. E-books, physical books, and audiobooks all qualify. You do what works for you!

Watch for another blog on Friday, March 3rd to read about the first genre and get on your way to completing the 2023 Friends’ Reading Challenge!
