Is this, I mean, is this a train I want to get on this summer?

If I only have so much reading time at my disposal, how do I want to use it?

And do I want this book to be in the mix?

And if you have questions, like people will say things like, well, you know,

I'm not feeling really sweary this summer.

Can you guide me in that direction?

Or I need a book that's going to leave me in a hopeful space and I'm thinking about X title.

Is it a good fit?

I can answer those questions because I've read them all.

Ginger, what would you add to that?

We hear that.

Also something that's unique about our guide is since 2019, shout out to Katie who designed our first one, we've done a beautiful user-friendly magazine style that you can print the whole thing if you want, you can mark it up.

But it's just a really fun way to engage with something that a lot of people really enjoy and look forward to every year.

And that is their

summer reading.

Oh, what's a word that I can use that's not curriculum?

Because that sounds a little too much like school.

To some of us, anything that hints of school, like you want homework.

You wish we'd make worksheets for your summer reading.

But for others of you, you want nothing this max of that.
