Teen Read Week is Coming!

Hello all!

Monday is October 1st. You know what that means! Yep, the day when I break out all of my Halloween themed earrings (seriously, I have about 10 pairs that I alternate all month long)!

But also, it means that Teen Read Week is just around the corner. This year we celebrate you--teens--and what you read from October 14-20 and the theme is the creepy 'It Came From the Library' (insert evil laugh here). 

All that week I'll be posting creepy books for you to read, I'll also be making some videos about your favorite spooky stories, and there just may be some giveaways! So stay tuned!

Ahh, Teen Read Week. Just another reason Fall is the best season!

DFTBA,
Sti

Per their blog*: As a high school librarian, offering reading recommendations for students is one of my favorite parts of my job. These lists are for parents, library workers, and teen readers... I created these lists through an alchemy involving age of the protagonists, themes, genre, tone, complexity, reader skill/comfortability level, events and topics a student will likely encounter in their studies during the school year, and books they are unlikely to read for school. I also tried to pick materials that published in the last few years or will be published by June 2021. Preference to #ownvoices and marginalized authors. Below you'll find links to their lists broken up by grade level. Whether you know an avid reader who always...
