There are millions of books out there you might read - more if you can read langues in addition to English. How do you find something you will like??

Just ask!

You can find suggestions below, or talk to your school or public library staffer for ideas. You can also participate in the #AskALibrarian discussion on Twitter.

We also share all kinds of books in our book group podcast: Reading With Libraries. You can add it to your podcast app, or stream it on our site here: https://cmle.org/cmle-created-resourc...
