I love, love, love, love my library so when I saw that J. Kaye was also doing a challenge to support your local library I knew I had to sign up! I challenged myself to read 50 books from the Morgan Hill Library this year.
The best thing about Santa Clara County Libraries is that if your branch doesn't have the book you're looking for you can request it. When it comes into your branch you receive an email or a phone call letting you know your book is ready. You don't have to travel all over the county looking for your book. Greatest thing ever!
After looking at this list I realize that I check a lot of books out of the library! Most of the books I've read this year have been from there, yet I still have tons of books I own that I haven't read. Better get reading! Here's my list of books I've checked out & read from my library this year:
