If you'd like to join the competition next quarter contact Mary at mercershawlibrary@gmail.com. Here is how it works:
Participants' names are entered on a chart which will display how many book pages each has read. Readers notify Mary via email of their page counts, the titles and authors of the book(s) they read and a few comments about the book(s) on a weekly basis. The chart is updated and published on this page. (We use the honor system, but you are asked to tell a little about each book for book/author recommendation purposes. Internet and periodical reading cannot be included.) At the end of every quarter first, second and third place winners will be determined and will receive prizes. You can only win one first place prize per year, but in addition to the quarterly prizes, the participant with the most pages read in 2018 will receive an Annual Grand Prize on New Year's Day. Contact Mary as soon as possible if you are interested in joining, and your name will be added to the chart. |
