Anderson County Library's Summer Reading for Adults

Don’t let the kids have ALL the fun this summer. Sign up to read for your own chance to win a Books-a-Million gift certificate!

Sign up at any Anderson County Library location. You’ll get a reading log, a book review form and a bookmark. Then, there are two ways to participate:

  1. Write a book review and turn it in by July 26.

  2. Keep track on your reading log of time spent reading for pleasure. Include reading to yourself or to others (such as reading aloud to children). When you’ve logged two hours, turn in your reading log by July 26.

The more you read, the more chances you have to win. You can review as many books and turn in as many reading logs as you like. Each completed review or reading log gives you one chance to win. Check here to see your reviews.

All entries are due by July 26. Prize drawing will be held on July 28.
