Lisa decided to create a Book Challenge for our library.  It's just for fun - the only prizes are bragging rights.  She's calling it 17 books in 2017.  The categories are below or you can stop by the library and pick up a form with blanks for you to fill in with titles you read.  We'd love to see your recommendations for the different categories.

Happy Reading!
