Quick FAQ

What is this?

The Teen Summer Reading Group is an online blog, JUST for Uxbridge Teens. It's run by the Uxbridge Public Library. It's just for fun, and a place to write about anything book-related that you want to.

What if I don't want to read 8 books?

That's okay- you can write about ANY books you want to, good or bad, especially ones you think other teens would want to know about. You can read as many or as few as you want of the eight we've picked- keep in mind that if you read none, you won't have a favourite to vote for!

Why would I want to join?

WELL, for starters, we'll be giving away a $50 value prize each week. Mhm, that might be enough to get you to join! But it's also a great way to share your opinion about book related matters. And maybe you'll make new friends-- especially if you're going into high school in the fall and want to know more people! :)

Who can join?

TEENS! The site is for teenagers, so if you're entering grades 8-12 in September 2012, you should join.

Who is running this?

Corrinne and Deanna are our names, and you'll see us posting on the site every once in a while (okay, maybe more often than that). We work at the library, so drop on by and say hi! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email us!

How do I get started?
