A friendly summer challenge from the Massachusetts Center for the Book: Read and discuss the 12 Must-Read titles in each category (fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and children’s/YA) before winners are announced in the fall.
The Must-Read lists are beautiful! You can print them and take them into the library or local bookstore, or post them as reminders that Massachusetts has champion writers as well as sports teams.
Book lists from the Massachusetts Center for the Book:
Print Version of Must-Read Fiction 2011
Print Version of Must-Read Nonfiction 2011
Print Version of Must-Read Poetry 2011
Print Version of Must-Read Children’s/Young Adult Literature 2011
I’m in the middle of This Must Be the Place, a first novel by Kate Racculia, an Emerson College grad living in Boston, and will be posting to the MassBook Facebook discussion REALLY soon.
