📚 **READ. EXPLORE. MAKE SOME MEMORIES.**

Our September **READ Poster Series** continues with **Susan Deatrick, Manager of Youth Services & Adult Services at the Paulding County Carnegie Library!**

Susan loves traveling, exploring new places, and—of course—spending time at the **BEACH!** So her featured book, *The Bucket List* by **Rachel Hanna**, fits her personality perfectly.

*The Bucket List* follows a woman whose adventurous best friend leaves her an unusual challenge: complete her friend’s bucket list before turning 50. What follows pushes her outside her comfort zone and into experiences she never imagined taking on. It’s a story filled with friendship, humor, emotion, and adventure—and maybe a little inspiration to start thinking about your own bucket list!

🌴 **Where is YOUR next adventure taking you?**

Did you know the library has an entire world of **travel books and resources** waiting to be explored?

Whether you’re dreaming about a beach vacation, planning a road trip, discovering a new destination, or simply traveling from the comfort of your favorite chair, your library is a great place to start.

And don’t forget—**September is Library Card Sign-Up Month!**

**One library card. A world of possibilities. Where will yours take you?**

Stop by the Paulding County Carnegie Library or one of our branches and get your library card, then start planning your next adventure!
