As an avid reader, one of the activities I enjoy is reviewing the books that I read. So I’m glad to spread word of an opportunity for teens through Sonoma County Library: read and review three teen books and receive a book for free!

“Read Three, Get One Free” is a teen book-review-and-reward program available at all Sonoma County Library branches. (I first learned of this program when it was available at the Rincon Valley Library. On behalf of teen readers, I’m appreciative that this is now a system-wide library program.)

Seventh- through 12th-graders can select a free paperback book for every three teen books they read and review. Review forms can be downloaded, or picked up at any SCL branch. Free paperbacks will be distributed while supplies last.
