Banned Books Week Recap!📚

A big THANK YOU to everyone who stopped by our table in the Union and participated in our Blind Date with a Banned Book event at Brookens Library! We loved connecting with everyone who came by and seeing you take a chance on a surprise read while celebrating the freedom to read.

We hope you enjoy your mystery book pick and discover a new favorite along the way! Every book has a story worth discovering, and every reader deserves the freedom to explore it.
