Summer Reading Program 2012

Here's the annotated list of books that are offered for our Summer Reading Program 2012. Most titles have a hotlink to Powell's Books, Multnomah County Library, and Amazon Kindle. If reviews are available from NoveList, a link has been created to it. If you are viewing this from home, NoveList will require a user name (oregon) and a password (oregon). Please read reviews carefully so that you may be confident that ALL THREE of your choices are books that you would like to read!
