How Do I...
Participate in the year-long reading challenge?
Designed to keep you reading all year long, our reading challenge for adults encourages you to read one book per month. Choose books that fit 12 of the 15 categories, selected by our librarians to challenge you and help you tackle your ever-growing TBR list. Find your own book to fit the category, or look for a title from librarian-curated lists! When you finish a category, list the title of the book and check it off. When you’ve read 12 categories, submit a form (available mid-year) for an invite to our year-end celebration and enter for a chance to win a family membership pass to the Milwaukee County Zoo!

What We’re Listening To...
My Husband's Wife by Alice Feeney
One juicy plot twist delivery. One of our Youth Services Librarians, Lori, is currently listening to My Husband's Wife by Alice Feeney. This thriller follows the story of Eden Fox, who returns home to find her key doesn't work and another woman has replaced her- and even her husband insists the stranger is his wife. It is full of mystery, and deception, and of course, a tangled web of plot twists!
